Paul, Yes, the urxvt supports unicode, and the file command tells me the character encoding is utf8. > Then you cut and paste into another terminal window and end up with a lot > of control sequence gibberish.

When I paste (or insert) the tree output (without specifying a character code) into a composing alpine message something changes the character encoding to koi8-r. The command to invoke alpine specifies urxvt but that's ignored and the alpine window frame shows it's an xterm. Could this change character encoding of the enclosed text only with line drawing characters included?
