Charset encoding of passphrase

I'm trying to figure out how I have to encode correctly a passphrase in
Enigmail.
All commands from Enigmail to gpg include
--charset utf8 --passphrase-fd 0
My question is: do I have to encode the passphrase in utf-8 or does it
need to be encoded in the charset of the command prompt (in this case
Windows-850), or yet something else?
When I enter a passphrase with e.g. ä on the Windows command line (no
charset in gpg.conf set), I can't find the correct encoding in Enigmail
that would gpg make accept passphrase.
Thanks,
Patrick
