Subject: [PATCH] fix: unicode character display

unicode characters are treated as they were several characters : cutting
a string at char 15 *might* cut in the middle of a unicode character

-> unicode() to convert a unicode char to its ASCII equivalent
[ will be updated each time we come across an error, though it should
not appear beside apostrophes ]
