Hi DM,
I've updated with the change you made for con_out.cpp.  That helps, as things look good with that.  After that though, I got another spam email and I see another case where console.strlen() is reporting more characters than what are displayed.  The string has an "E" at the end.. The string that gets displayed on a non-UTF8 terminal is ииииииииE, which is 9 characters, but console.strlen() returns 10.
I've made some example JavaScript code available here (I couldn't paste the string, even when using a UTF-8 terminal):

My web browser isn't displaying the string properly, but I've found that it looks okay if I download it via wget.
I've also commented on the merge request I made yesterday which is now closed.
