    Let me ask you: is your OS MS Windows of some sort? And the 'transformed
    characters' are the ones you see in the SWI IDE correctly 'wrong' in the
    command line?

    If my questions are both yes, the problem lies in the character set for
    the command prompt be different than the one used in the graphical
    enviroment:

    You have two choices:

    1) Avoid altogether accented characters; or
    2) Use the characters (in your program source) which will give in
    programm output the 'right' characters.
