Why can't you just use one of your magic spells, Aleister?
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Use od or hexdump to determine the byte values. If they are encoded with a single byte, then you can use tr to change them. If it's a multibyte sequence, you can use AWK.

NAME
mblen - determine number of bytes in next multibyte character
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
int mblen(const char *s, size_t n);
DESCRIPTION
If s is not NULL, the mblen() function inspects at most n bytes of the multibyte string starting at s and extracts the next complete multi-
byte character. It uses a static anonymous shift state known only to the mblen() function. If the multibyte character is not the null
wide character, it returns the number of bytes that were consumed from s. If the multibyte character is the null wide character, it
returns 0.
If the n bytes starting at s do not contain a complete multibyte character, mblen() returns -1. This can happen even if n is greater than
or equal to MB_CUR_MAX, if the multibyte string contains redundant shift sequences.
If the multibyte string starting at s contains an invalid multibyte sequence before the next complete character, mblen() also returns -1.
If s is NULL, the mblen() function resets the shift state, known to only this function, to the initial state, and returns nonzero if the
encoding has nontrivial shift state, or zero if the encoding is stateless.
RETURN VALUE
The mblen() function returns the number of bytes parsed from the multibyte sequence starting at s, if a non-null wide character was recog-
nized. It returns 0, if a null wide character was recognized. It returns -1, if an invalid multibyte sequence was encountered or if it
couldn't parse a complete multibyte character.
ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).

CONFORMING TO

NOTES
The behavior of mblen() depends on the LC_CTYPE category of the current locale.
The function mbrlen(3) provides a better interface to the same functionality.
