Hello Maurice!

 MK> If whoever compiled the busybox you currently have, built in utf8 support
 MK> then this should tell the tale;

 MK> $ echo -e "A M\uf8\uf8se once bit my sister ..."

H:\temp>
H:\temp>busybox echo -e "A M\uf8\uf8se once bit my sister ..."
A M\uf8\uf8se once bit my sister ...

H:\temp>busybox sh
H:/temp $ echo -e "A M\uf8\uf8se once bit my sister ..."
A M\uf8\uf8se once bit my sister ...
H:/temp $


 MK> You might not be able to read them properly but they *should* output the
 MK> correct codes if indeed your busybox is up to the task.
