I'm not really sure, it's been a long time since I've played with any of
that stuff. I know that in most terms ascii art will only display
correctly with a fixed width font. You might want to try swapping between
several of those (terminus for example) to determine if it is indeed a
font issue with nexus. There are a couple of differant terminus packages
for Debian, console-terminus xfonts-terminus etc.
