You want to set your keyboard-coding-system:
M-x set-keyboard-coding-system RET utf-8 RET
the coding system you want to use is utf-8 because that's what Mac OS X's
Terminal uses by default. Problem is: Emacs-20.7 does not support utf-8.
Emacs-21.2 supports it to some extent, so it should work there.
You may also need to set your terminal-coding-system in order to display
those chars correctly.
