| To enable better line drawing with the VT100 setting do the following on system where PuTTY runs | |
| PuTTY versions before 0.71 | |
| Temporary set locale to C before starting PuTTY if you use a different locale. |
Then start PuTTY. This setting will enable better proper line-drawing. |
| PuTTY versions starting with 0.71 | |
| Use the new UTF8linedraw parameter in the PuTTY configuration. | Either add the line UTF8linedraw=1 to your session configuration file or Start PuTTY from the command-line, load the HPA-Telnet-VT100 session, enable VT100 line drawing for UTF-8 (the last parameter in Window > Translation), and save the session. |
| On the HP-UX guest system | |
| Set the terminal type to vt100 after logging in to the system (this can be added to the login profile, if required). |
This will configure a terminal type known to HP-UX. Without a known terminal type many screen-based applications (e.g., editor, SAM) will not work. |
The following image shows a PuTTY window running SAM after the settings above were configured:
The following image shows a PuTTY window where the locale on the system running PuTTY is something different from C:
Additional information: Cannot get correct line drawing on Linux/UNIX with Putty.
