I know some CL implementations support unicode string while
their editor--Emacs does not. How, then, do they manage to
print & read unicode string?

Thanks in advance,

Emacs does support various Unicode character encoding schemes (in
particular UTF-8). If you were using Debian you could just apt-get install
mule-ucs: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/editors/mule-ucs.html
