title: How to use box drawing high ASCII characters in Visual Studio 15 console app?
body: <p>I have a Win32 console app that plays the game of life in a CMD window.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to draw a box around the field using some of the standard box drawing characters such as: (186: ║), (187: ╗) (188: ╝), (200: ╚), (201: ╔), (205: ═) but I'm not getting anywhere.</p>
  
  <p>First, during build I get warnings such as: "warning C4566: character represented by universal-character-name '\u2551' cannot be represented in the current code page (1252)" </p>
  
  <p>The code will run, but it will display something else in place of the box drawing characters. I looked through as many properties as I could find, but I did not find any place to change the current codepage.</p>
  
  <p>Any idea on how and where to change it?   Or is this something I need to change in Windows perhaps?  I'm running Win 7 Pro, if that matters. </p>
  
  <p>I did change the VS editor's codepage to 850 (Western European DOS) but that had no effect on the executable. </p>
