Currently in J6 the jconsole defaults to using 0{BOXES_j_ . IF you are using a
non-raster font then the result is the display you
In J7 the jconsole defaults to 1{Boxes_j_ (ASCII) which is nice and safe.
I use line drawing chars in the jconsole (Win7 32bit) by setting
boxdraw_j_ 2
This essentially uses ASCII linedrawing chars (i.e not +|- )

J7 only defines the unicode versions of the linedrawing chars in Boxes_j_ so
you can set linedrawing chars if desired by:
9!:7 ] 218 194 191 195 197 180 192 193 217 179 196 { a.
