That doesn't seem to work very well for me.

That looks somewhat similar to my experience when I do my full utf-8 config.
When I use 'xlatimport xp437' that changes to a worse situation. Except while
I do get those wierd characters after the area names, I'm not getting the
block drawing characters anywhere right now, it's just those wierd characters
(one on almost every line like in your screenshot), but basically blank space
everywhere else the block characters are.

Regards,
Nick
