Specifying how emacs-w3m displays characters

[Henrik S. Hansen]

I use Emacs on the console, and have a problem with emacs-w3m: some
non-ascii characters displays as ~ (tilde).  These includes the left and
right single quotation marks -- "‘" and "’" in HTML.

The problem is emacs-specific -- w3m shows the characters as expected.

How do I change this?  Setting buffer-display-table or something else,
or is there a simple way (as I expect)?

I have (setq w3m-use-mule-ucs t) in my .emacs-w3m, but this seems to
have no effect.
