The artifact command uses fossil_puts to display the contents. Fossil puts uses strlen to determine the number of chars to be written. So for binary files with embedded nulls this will fail. Using fossil_puts in this case is arguably a mistake as it also does encoding conversion. You can work around it by providing a filename with the artifact command.
