Howdy All,
I'm using a remote Screen session from Putty on a Windows box. I use it
to read mail in Pine, as well as browse the web in eLinks.
Whenever I encounter UTF-8 characters (with accent marks), the Screen gets
goobered up and, for example, scrolls up by a few lines. (This is fun in
Pine, as I won't know which message I'm looking at or deleting.)
Without using Screen, everything works OK. Since I thought it might be a
terminal setting, I checked; when I just use pine, TERM is set to XTerm.
So, I ran screen and set the terminal type to XTerm, and get the same
results.
Any ideas?
Later,
-J
