This 3 4 $ 'a', 'ఝ', 'b'
is a strange beast: The string requires 5 bytes, so you have chopped 3
copies of it into 3 4-byte sections. ": formats each line separately;
the second and third lines contain partial UTF-8 sequences which are
displayed as unknown. I think it's right; at least it's reasonable
(formatting of invalid UTF-8 is undefined).
Playing with UTF-8 is hard; easier to convert to unicodes first, using u: .

I can't seem to download the newest beta, but this behaviour in the previous
one does not seem correct and may be the same in the newest version (I don't
expect that the CJK changes would affect this behaviour). Introducing new
characters instead of the � to show non-displayable characters would be
confusing to the user, and the third line containing 3 characters instead of
the expected 4 seems incorrect.
Cheers, bob
