I could NOT believe your reply ... until I noticed that the NumLock had been
switched ON ... Oh J. ...

Switching NumLock OFF:

Using Windows Console (cp437)

64-@@ od -tx1
<alt-254><^J><^D>
â– 
0000000 e2 96 a0 0a
0000004
64-@@ dash
# enter alt-254
$ echo â–  | od -tx1
0000000 e2 96 a0 0a
0000004
$ exit
64-@@ bash --noediting
=> LANG = en_US.UTF-8
64-@@ od -tx1
<alt-254><^J><^D>
â– 
0000000 e2 96 a0 0a
0000004
64-@@

Ai, ai, ai, my bad. My apologies!

Signing off from keyboard NOW!
