I.e. if you telnet or SSH into your machine, the font used is the font on your LOCAL side, not the one on your machine. Presuming that you come in from another linux box, issue the setfont command before you telnet/ssh over to your box. If you use an X terminal (or windows telnet/SSH client) it is usually the same thing, except that with these you usually use the GUI to change the terminal font (which really is a X font in this case). Can't help with the regex question though, sorry.
