Modern *nix terminals should be using UTF-8 already. On WinXP

write out the UTF-8 bytes. Something like that, perhaps?
Let's pretend we're waaaay overthinking this.
Let's try this:
print ("-" .. " is a hyphen")
print ( ?? .. " is an n-dash")
Without more information, we can only guess at what platform or
software you are using.
You need a UTF-8 aware editor, for starters, or you can use
escaped character codes in strings.
