This amounts to two changes:

Support Windows Console API in terminal.hpp functions
Implement Unicode console output through WriteConsoleW. This means switching to wstring and wostream, or setting up cout locale to convert UTF-8 to UTF-16 (with codecvt_utf8_utf16).

See:

std::codecvt_utf8_utf16 http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/locale/codecvt_utf8_utf16
