With Japanese it gets even stranger...
Authored by: arglborps on Oct 16, '02 09:28:54PM

I just ran a calendar app with a Japanese name. Then when running top in the Terminal the Japanese name was displayed properly.

I thought "wow, they fixed this in 10.2??" so I did a cd to /Applications/ listing the directory with an ls, hoping that the Kanji and Hiragana of the application's name would also be displayed properly, with no luck (just got an ?????).

So apparently Terminal.app is seriously broken. I can't see any reason why it should be able to support Unicode with process names, but not with filenames.
