Thanks for your help John. After trying some of your suggestions, it would
seem it was a 'brown paper bag' problem with my terminal emulator (as you
hinted at!).

I should have checked this completely at the terminal before posting, but
thought it strange that characters would work correctly in the shell, but
not in nano. Hopefully someone else will find this post useful!

SOLUTION:
It would seem that by default, SecureCRT does not use UTF. The SecureCRT
session properties are: Terminal -> Appearance: Character Encoding: UTF-8.

How embarrassing ;-)

Thanks,
Bryan
