Unicode, AppleScript, and the shell

Hi all,

I'm neither a Unicode nor AppleScript expert, so I'm hoping someone here
can help me.

I'm trying to use AppleScript and shell script to manipulate files with
non-ASCII characters (Japanese actually). Something like this:

set command to "/Developer/Tools/MvMac file folder"
do shell script command

If 'folder' has Japanese characters, how do I do this? Simply typing
Japanese results in question marks once I hit compile. :(

Thanks for any pointers!
