Execute the following command:

Configuration

If the menu does not correctly display line drawing, 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:

# echo $TERM
vt100
# TERM=vt200
# export TERM
# menu

Notes:

  • New TERM value can also be set to xterm
  • Starting with version 1.48, it is possible to disable line drawing 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
