Rational® Synergy provides support for Unicode character sets.
Rational Synergy provides support for characters from the Unicode 5.1 standard. The ability to display characters in the supported Unicode set depends upon your operating system settings and fonts. Rational Synergy does not provide any fonts.
File encodings
Text written by Rational Synergy to the standard output and standard error streams is in the system default encoding. Text read by Rational Synergy from the standard input stream is assumed to be in the same system default encoding.
