Ooops - apologies! Thought I routinely did so, but must have overlooked it this time. > What terminal/console are you using? Unicode RXVT by any > chance? How does it behave in other consoles? THAT rang the bell! I am using PowerShell - as I just double-checked - that indeed operates in Unicode-16 unless told otherwise. And it came into play here, because I had simply redirected sed's output to a file. Nothing to do with sed at all! Apologies for the wasted bandwidth!
