yes, but I was just trying to ask about the simplest configuration for terminal-in-console for which you should be able to get the box characters. > IIRC Eric suggests to comment out > $_term_char_set entirely and use > only other two options, which is > what works for me perfectly. > So, unless I am missing something, > $_term_char_set is absolete and is > used in the new kbd code only for > compatibility purposes (is this correct?) essentially, yes. $_term_char_set = "ibm" is equivalent to: $_external_char_set = "cp437" $_internal_char_set = "cp437" also, if *everything* is commented out then "ibm" is the default on the console (latin is the default via network or xterm). The bug was that with $_external_char_set = "cp437", DOSEMU forgot to do the equivalent of echo -e '\033(U' which effectively selects cp437 on the Linux console. This doesn't seem to help the OP though ...
