[Bug]: The console output pane has a `charset` of US-ASCII rather than UTF-8

[Basil-Dot-Work]

What happened?

The title says it all: The default character encoding of the Dev.Java Playground’s console pane is US-ASCII. For maximum compatibility, it should be UTF-8.

Run:

System.out.println( System.out.charset() ) ;

US-ASCII

So of course characters in Unicode beyond ASCII are garbled.

Run:

System.out.println( "Kıvanç Aydoğan" ) ;

K?van? Aydo?an

Solution: Default the charset of the console pane to UTF-8.
