How do I get back to the normal characters ?
Your locale specifies an encoding that your terminal doesn't understand, i.e., they are out of sync, e.g., LC_CTYPE includes ".UTF-8" but your terminal expects Latin1 or vice-versa. Change your terminal to match LC_CTYPE or change LC_CTYPE to match your terminal (perhaps even unset it).
