enscript doesn't support utf-8 and the only other suggestion I've seen is to use lpr:
lpr -o document-format=text/utf8 file_to_print
but that gives an "Unsupported format" error.
(Ubuntu 9.04 / GNOME Terminal 2.26.0)
what about converting to post script and then printing PS directly?
You can use paps to convert UTF-8 input to postscript. A bit crude but it seems to get the job done, at least for Latin-1 glyphs.

Does anyone know of a way to see file in Hex on Linux so that the view is updated when a file on Disk changes.
You can use vim. To switch into hex mode type:

Anyone know some image viewers for Linux/Ubuntu
which have faster loading times than the
gimp and firefox which I can install with
apt-get, or which are already on the system.
Fed up of having to wait for these to load,
each time I need to view an image. I need
something fast and jiffy.
I'm also looking for sth I can run from the command line.
Try the "display" command line. apt-get install imagemagick

Is there a free tool under linux system, for converting ascii text to unicode by keeping original text formatting ?
iconv can convert between different encodings, if that's what you mean.
Sure, it's called cat:
cat myasciifile > myunicodefile
Now myunicodefile consists of unicode codepoints, encoded in the popular UTF8 encoding. Note that this assumes that myasciifile consists only of legal ASCII characters (i.e. in the range 0-127).
An alternative to this is cp.
