Hi

 - I have a hashes list with UTF-8 format
 - My terminal is UTF-8 configured
 - params.h is configured for digits/symbols/accent (see below)
#define CHARSET_MIN			'  '
#define CHARSET_MAX			0xFF
#define CHARSET_SIZE			(CHARSET_MAX - CHARSET_MIN + 1)

 Sometimes hashes are cracked but letter/digits/accent plaintext is 
remplaced by a "symbol" (see picture below, the red symbol (question 
mark)).

 Thanks,
