如何在RAILS CONSOLE中显示UTF-8字符？

Question

I am trying to display UTF-8 characters, in particular characters from the Tamil language, in the Rails Console.

Currently, my entries in my MongoDB database are displayed in the Rails console as follows: "_____" .

On my Rails application, ie localhost, however, I see the actual Tamil characters: ie அம்மா .

Now I wonder what I can do to display the UTF-8 characters in the Rails console using a Windows machine. I have tried installing the 'rb-readline' gem, however, it is not solving my problem. Any suggestions?

This isn't exactly a Rails issue. You might need to update the encoding of Windows command line.
