[Haskell-cafe] putStrLn "ß"

[Henk-Jan van Tuyl]

L.S.,

When I try
   putStrLn "ß"
(Eszett (sharp S)) in WinGhci, the interpreter seems to have disappeared;  
ctrl-C gives the message "Interrupted" in a separate window, but no new  
prompt. When I start GHCi in a shell, the interpreter displays:
   Prelude> print "ß"
   "\223"

Is this a known issue?

Other experiments with WinGhci:
   >print "αγδ"
   "a?d"
(Trying to print alpha, gamma, delta.)

   >print "β"
(Trying to print beta) interpreter hangs again.

Details:
  - WinGhci 1.0.2
  - GHCi, version 6.12.3
  - Windows XP

Regards,
Henk-Jan van Tuyl
