Line drawing

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

Putty version 0.71 and above

Set the new parameter "UTF8linedraw=1"

• 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"

you can keep your locale / codepage as UTF-8

Putty version 0.70 and below

Change the terminal settings. If : if set to vt100 for example, you will see lowercase characters in place of menu borders.

To correct this, enter the following commands:

Notes:

• New TERM value can also be set to xterm
• Starting with 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:
  Image Removed
  Image Added
  
  and maybe Remote character set parameter:
