debugging output. Compiling OpenTTD with the --enable-console

the MSYS console for its output.

+Unreadable characters for non-latin locales [FS#4607]
+ OpenTTD does not ship a non-latin font in its graphics files. As a
+ result OpenTTD needs to acquire the font from somewhere else. What
+ OpenTTD does is ask the operating system, or a system library, for
+ the best font for a given language if the currently loaded font
+ does not provide all characters of the chosen translation. This
+ means that OpenTTD has no influence over the quality of the chosen
+ font; it just does the best it can do.
+
+ If the text is unreadable there are several steps that you can take
+ to improve this. The first step is finding a good font and configure
+ this in the configuration file. See section 9.0 of readme.txt for
+ more information. You can also increase the font size to make the
+ characters bigger and possible better readable.
+
+ If the problem is with the clarity of the font you might want to
+ enable anti-aliasing by setting the small_aa/medium_aa/large_aa
+ settings to "true". However, anti-aliasing only works when a 32 bits
+ blitter has been selected, e.g. blitter = "32bpp-anim", as with the
+ 8 bits blitter there are not enough colours to properly perform the
+ anti-aliasing.
