their \x{} equivalents and this makes the output unreadable. Suggestions?

Maybe have the option to UTF8 stdout/stderr and just send the characters and let the display handle it. But I don't think it should be the default. Unicode is tricky and lots of unicode characters can be combined in ways that look identical to humans when displayed, but are not the same at all when the bytes are shown.
