Issue with extended characters

I've just discovered your library, wish I had found it years ago. I'm so happy it exists.

One problem that I've been getting though is on putty. Using your examples, line characters aren't appearing properly.

I have tried the following to resolve.

  • using different fonts in putty.
  • having putty terminal-type set to xterm
  • having putty terminal-type set to vt220
  • having remote character-set set to UTF-8 ( default )
  • having remote character-set set to various latin
  • Updated putty and tried the new translation setting: enable VT100 line drawing even in UTF-8 mode

None of these have had any noticeable effect.
