Tip

In case the background color is black, the blue color used for some output could be difficult to read. It is possible to switch to an alternate color from the 'Preferences' menu option. This requires the terminal emulator to support 256 colors (xterm).

If the menu does not correctly display line drawing, you can change some parameters in putty.

...

  • on Linux, add a line in .putty/sessions/yoursession containing this parameter (above)
  • on Windows, change settings from "Window" → "Translation" pane and check the button "Enable VT100 line drawing even in UTF-8 mode"

(info) you can keep your locale / codepage as UTF-8.

...

To correct this, enter the following commands:

# echo $TERM
vt100
# TERM=vt200xterm
# export TERM
# menu

Notes:

  • New TERM value can also be set to xterm
  • (lightbulb) Starting with kit version 1.48, it is possible to disable line drawing (semi-graphics) from the preferences menu
  • If you’re using putty, you'll maybe have to force the Terminal-type string:



    and maybe Remote character set parameter:

    (lightbulb) If you have issues with some characters that are not displayed correctly, please see this article: Cannot get correct line drawing on Linux/UNIX with Putty
