Raul said what I was thinking.
The point is, a literal string is UTF-8 (i. e. bytes) NOT unicode. When
you reverse the bytes in a UTF-8 string you get garbage. You need to
convert to Unicode first, as Raul showed.

Is there a way to change character-sets or code-pages or fonts to change
the letters that are displayed when a J sentence is executed?
Would it be a setting in the terminal or a verb in J?
I’ve also noticed that |. has problems reversing two byte UTF-8
characters? What is the preferred method for reversing such characters
in a string
