Putty configuration
Colors
Recommended color scheme for 'putty' is (all other values can remain as they are by default):
| Color to adjust | Red | Green | Blue |
|---|---|---|---|
| Default Foreground | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Default Foreground Bold | 0 | 0 | 160 |
| Default Background | 255 | 255 | 255 |
| Default Background Bold | 192 | 192 | 192 |
| ANSI White | 223 | 223 | 223 |
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).
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 set to vt100 for example, you will see lowercase characters in place of menu borders.
To correct this, enter the following commands:
|
Notes:
- 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:
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
