It's hard to sufficiently emphasize how ugly this looks in an Emacs shell 
buffer.  I use the Inconsolata font with emacs, and it doesn't have those 
characters (the dashes and corner characters), so Emacs goes to a different 
fixed-width font for them, and that font has a different width, so the 
horizontal dashes are about twice the width of the text lines!  I just turn 
it off by setting SAGE_BANNER to "no".
