Oh, I could set LANG ot some UTF-16, in case. Would that be
better? Change things? As I said, I'll regenerate this file
in due time in an updated edition.

I understood Mikahls "\tilde n" as a pointer to where he

regsub here or some call to recode(1).
\tilde n is nice TeX syntax, there'd be conversions for any
char available in 7bit. A nice solution as well :) <joking/>
