title: How to get support for '✖' and the like in the Emacs shell buffer?
body: <p>I'm running a process that, on failing error, outputs the character '✖'(as defined in Unicode).  However, I don't see the error at all if running the process in an Emacs shell buffer (Aquamacs distro of GNU Emacs).  </p>
  
  <p>Using: GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (i386-apple-darwin9.8.0, NS apple-appkit-949.54) of 2011-03-18 on braeburn.aquamacs.org - Aquamacs Distribution 2.2 </p>
  
  <p>How to get the Emacs shell buffer to support such unicode characters?</p>
