How to emit UTF-8 from console mode program?

[=?Utf-8?B?U2llZ2ZyaWVkIEhlaW50emU=?=]

The following perl program prints the russian alphabet in Cryllic when I use
the urxvt console from cygwin. It seems to understand UTF-8 better than
cmd.exe.

perl -wle "binmode STDOUT, q[:utf8]; print chr() for 0x410 .. 0x430;"

How can I translate this program to C# and write a console mode C# program
that emits UTF-8 and displays the proper Cryllic glyphs? I don't care what
console it works with, cmd.exe or urxvt are fine.

I don't know how I would check it, but you could try changing the
Console.OutputE ncoding. However, I suspect you might need to
OpenStandardOut put() and write directly to the Stream; something like:

using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(
Console.OpenSta ndardOutput(),
new UTF8Encoding(fa lse))) // no BOM
{
// write your glyphs to "writer"
}

using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(

new UTF8Encoding(fa lse))) // no BOM

// write your glyphs to "writer"
}

What differences UTF-8 without BOM and with BOM ??

Thanks.
