Hi Nicholas,

On 2024-02-14 23:34:00, you wrote to Vitaliy Aksyonov:

That "q" reference sounded familiar. I found a setting in putty that mentions
this:

Btw: With these settings your messsages look OK in putty. But now my 'mc'
linedrawing characters look totally borked. When I set putty to use utf-8,
'mc' looks ok, but your messages in golded look like this:

Not as it should be, but usable...


Bye, Wilfred.
