I've seen that kind of weirdness when the terminal and programs don't agree on the character set to use. If I read correctly, the problem exists on a local terminal too, so it's improbable it's a charset mismatch problem. Anyway, pasting the output of the locale program wouldn't hurt, though (and the character encoding putty is using). -- Jussi Peltola
