Formal UK English uses accented characters for some foreign imports (eg
cafÃ), Ã for words like naÃve, and if you are really pretentious you need
the à symbol for words like mediÃval although for modern writing this is
considered silly.

The bash problem btw should have been fixed (if it is bash causing it) as
of 2.05b and readline 4.3. If its being cause by the KDE terminal that
would suprise me but might be worth filing a bug.
