Ofcourse, one can argue that there is nothing wrong with that. But I
think is not "RIGHT" to just discard the output return by the backtick in a
void context.
In that light I concur with Charles DeRykus, that is better on uses
system() function.
So, the above can be written as thus:
system("chcp 65001>nil"); # this works for me Using OS Win 7 32bits
