Notice how the last two do not warn (the 0x80 after the 0xc4 has

MacSSH is nice (it even handles EUC-JP) but I hate to launch classic
so I use Terminal on MacOS X unless I really need it.
Speaking of Terminal, I have found when you cut & paste from Terminal
(with encoding UTF-8 as default, with other encodings listed but none of
which is useful) to anything, it does not preserve ascii; backslashes
are all converted to yen mark! This is annoying as hell.
What's so funny is that you can run utf8-savvy xterm on XDarwin and X
to Aqua clipboard works -- on Ascii. When you copy non-ascii part then
your clipboard becomes '#' times number of characters copied.
