It seems my system supports utf-8 but I still see boxes for the utf-8
characters in Frank's article. Any ideas?

Here is the output of 'describe-current-coding-system'
;;;;;;;;;;;;;start;;;;;;;;;;;;;

Coding system for saving this buffer:
  Not set locally, use the default.
Default coding system (for new files):
  u -- mule-utf-8 (alias: utf-8)

Coding system for keyboard input:
  nil
Coding system for terminal output:
  1 -- iso-8859-1 (alias of iso-latin-1)

Defaults for subprocess I/O:
  decoding: u -- mule-utf-8 (alias: utf-8)

  encoding: u -- mule-utf-8 (alias: utf-8)
