 # Unicode Support in the Compiler and Linker
-This topic describes Unicode support in the Visual C++ build tools.  
-  
- Filenames  
- Filenames specified on the command line or in compiler directives (such as #include) may now contain Unicode characters.  
-  
- Source code files  
- Unicode characters are now supported in identifiers, macros, string and character literals, and in comments.  Universal character names are also now supported.  
-  
- Unicode can be input into a source code file in the following encodings:  
-  
--   UTF-16 little endian with or without byte order mark (BOM)  
-  
--   UTF-16 big endian with or without BOM  
-  
--   UTF-8 with BOM  
-  
- Output  
- During compilation, compiler outputs diagnostics to the console in UTF-16.  The characters that can be displayed at your console depend on the console window properties.  Compiler output redirected to a file is in the current ANSI console codepage.  
-  
- Linker response files and .DEF files  
- Response files and DEF files can be either UTF-16 with a Byte Order Mark or ANSI.  Previously only ANSI was supported.  
-  
- .asm and .cod dumps  
- .asm and .cod dumps are in ANSI by default for compatibility with MASM.  Use /FAu to output UTF-8.  Note that if you specify /FAs, the intermingled source will just be directly printed and may look garbled, for example if source code is UTF-8 and you didn't specify /FAsu.  
-  
- You can enable Unicode file names in the development environment (see  [Working with Project Properties](../../ide/working-with-project-properties.md)) by selecting the appropriate tool and by selecting the **Enable Unicode Response Files** property, which is enabled by default. One reason you might change this default is if you modify your development environment to use a compiler that does not have Unicode support.

+Most Visual C++ build tools support Unicode inputs and outputs.
+
+## Filenames
+
+Filenames specified on the command line or in compiler directives (such as `#include`) may contain Unicode characters.
+
+## Source code files
+
+Unicode characters are supported in identifiers, macros, string and character literals, and in comments.  Universal character names are also supported.
+
+Unicode can be input into a source code file in the following encodings:
+
+- UTF-16 little endian with or without byte order mark (BOM)
+
+- UTF-16 big endian with or without BOM
+
+- UTF-8 with BOM
+
+## Output
+
+During compilation, the compiler outputs diagnostics to the console in UTF-16.  The characters that can be displayed at your console depend on the console window properties.  Compiler output redirected to a file is in the current ANSI console codepage.
+
+## Linker response files and .DEF files
+
+Response files and DEF files can be either UTF-16 with a BOM, or ANSI.
+
+## .asm and .cod dumps
+
+.asm and .cod dumps are in ANSI by default for compatibility with MASM. Use [/FAu](../../build/reference/fa-fa-listing-file.md) to output UTF-8. Note that if you specify **/FAs**, the intermingled source will just be directly printed and may look garbled, for example if source code is UTF-8 and you didn't specify **/FAsu**.
