Maybe I am still misunderstanding something. I've
typed this command with *several* different encoding
changes in my Workbench and I see *absolutely* no
difference in the graphical output. (Which is what
I expected to see, actually.)

Are you seeing something different? My output is
"wrong", of course. A capital A with a tilde over
it, followed by a 1/4 sign. But I can't see how
changing the editor text encoding will help here.

Cheers,

David
