Dir command and diacritics

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



Frequently I need to run the Dir command on machines that run foreign
language versions of XP. Where the languages use letters with diacritic
signs above them, the output is quite weird. All sorts of incorrect
symbols and spaces for missing letters show up.

Anyone know a way around this? Perhaps a program in a modern
programming language?
