Details:

When I copy text from the Octave Command Window (from the output of having run
a command), I often get strange characters in the output. For example, when I
copy the text that displays as:

Average Training CE 2.935
Finished Training.
Final Training CE 2.935
Final Validation CE 2.925
Final Test CE 2.925
Training took 398.99 seconds

When I paste it into a text editor, it contains an unusual character that
appears like this:

甜̅Average Training CE 2.935
Finished Training.
Final Training CE 2.935
Final Validation CE 2.925
Final Test CE 2.925
Training took 398.99 seconds

In this text input field on this bug tracker website, it shows up as a box
because it's an unrecognized character, but it often appears as a Chinese
character or some other type of foreign character. Sometimes there are many
such characters that appear. Other times, the text doesn't copy at all. 
I also sometimes have trouble copying from a text editor and into Octave where
the text won't paste into Octave in the Command Window or in the Editor.
