Chinese characters not shown in Command History

Issue:
When I print Chinese text to Rhino’s Command History, the lines don’t show—only blank lines appear—while English prints normally.

Repro code:
print(‘good’)
print(u’中文显示’)
Rhino.RhinoApp.WriteLine(u"{}“.format(“中文显示”))
Rhino.RhinoApp.WriteLine(u”{}".format(“good”))

Actual result (in Command History):
good
[blank line]
[blank line]
good

The two Chinese lines appear as empty lines between the two “good” lines.
I guess it is a font/glyph issue—perhaps the Command Prompt/Command History panel is using a font without CJK glyphs. However, I can’t find where to change the font used by the Command Prompt/Command History on my system.

Please run the SystemInfo in the Rhino command line and paste the output here. Also, would be convenient to share a screenshot of the current issue? Or perhpas record a video? Thank you.
