I guess it is not the goal to make the source file unreadable ;)

I recommend to go for 'recode' as a preprocessor:

    echo Grüß Gott naïve hällò | recode ..texi

recode's texi table look uncomplete and even under UTF-8 it seems to
default to ISO-8859-1:

    export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8
    echo óéáú | recode ..texi | iconv -f iso-8859-1
ó@'eáú
