TICK in Windows 10 (power shell) looks like small question marks ?

I am using Chart to show a bar graph and the individual "TICK" marks show up as question mark. Been trying to debug it and I was able to make it work when I change TICK from the defined quoted value to

TICK = u"\u2588"

At that point I get a solid color block in whatever color defined. I tried to

from termgraph import termgraph as tg
from collections import defaultdict
C = tg.AVAILABLE_COLORS

 TICK = u"\u2588"

    tg.chart (
        colors=[C["green"] , C["yellow"]] ,
        data=[[nft , og]] ,
        args=defaultdict (bool ,
            {
                "stacked" : True ,
                "custom_tick": TICK,
                "width" : 60 ,
                "format" : "{:<5.2f}" ,
                "no_labels" : True ,
                "suffix" : f" (NFT:{nft} ({nft_pct:.0f}%), OG:{og} ({og_pct:.0f}%))"
            } ,
        ) ,
        labels=[""] ,
    )

and the class would not reflect the overwrite of the TICK variable passed. I reviewed the code of the library and the TICK is a global value that is changed when is passed via the argument, but not when I import the package.

What do you recommend is the best approach to fix the definition of TICK so that it will show properly in windows 10.

Is the terminal being used support UTF-8?

The \u2588 is a standard unicode character for the full block.
