This was tested only with dir command but it might work with others as well. This repo doesn't seem to be active anymore, however I'm still creating this PR in case anyone finds these changes useful.
The problem I was having is because cmd in Windows 10 uses a font that doesn't support Shift-J graphs, so when running the dir command it would show question boxes. It worked well with Powershell and chcp 65001 inside cmd (this changed the font automatically), however I prefer my original settings :p So if you also do, this might help you.
What it does is transform the Unicode characters by applying a substraction in some cases and in others it gets the ASCII value from a dictionary.
