Try:
(port-settings-set! ##stdout-port (list char-encoding: 'UTF-8))
Note: if you really want the "console port" then use (console-port)
instead of ##stdout-port.
Note 2: I guess it is time to add procedures to get the stdin/stdout/
stderr, e.g. (stdout-port) to get the standard output. Do other
Scheme implementations have an established naming convention for these
procedures?
