Powershell '' operator, change encoding?

Question

Is there a way to change the default encoding of the > operator in powershell? I'd like it to output as ANSI as UTF-8 for my requirements.txt: ``` pip freeze > requirements.txt ```

Accepted Answer

```
pip freeze | Out-File -Encoding UTF8 requirements.txt
```

or you can try

```
pip freeze > iconv -f UTF-8 -t ISO-8859-1 in.txt > out.txt
```
