title: How do I change a shell scripts character encoding?
body: <p>I am using <a href="http://ginatrapani.github.com/todo.txt-cli/" rel="noreferrer">Gina Trapiani's excellent todo.sh</a> to organize my todo-list.</p>
  
  <p>However being a dane, it would be nice if the script accepted special danish characters like &oslash; and &aelig;.</p>
  
  <p>I am an absolute UNIX-n00b, so it would be a great help if anybody could tell me how to fix this! :)</p>
