Just to prevent others from the same mistake I did: all after "dictio
=" until "'day'}" has to be on one line.

Seems like the started terminal(look in preferences dialog -> Tools ->
Terminal) doesn't support Unicode.
VTE does support Unicode and so the output works in the embedded VTE in
Geany.

What is your "system terminal"? Try to set it in the preferences dialog
and try what happens.

This is also what I get with the embedded VTE in Geany and with Terminal
(the terminal emulation of Xfce, which also uses VTE) and I get this
also with Unicode-enabled xterm.

I guess this is related to the above.
