Using characters not found in the English alphabet with Maple read statement

How do I use characters in a file using the "read" statement?

Example: The following function code is written in a textfile test.mpl.

test:=proc()
print("hüstel");
end proc:

I read the file with

> read("test.mpl");
> test()

"h�stel"

The Letter "ü" appears like "�".

If the comand is input direct in the document mode it appears correct:

print("hüstel");

"hüstel"
