On another system which should be exactly the same regarding console font and character set (it's a desktop), the character is displayed as if I type the character inside emacs for instance. This other system has not Dosemu installed. The output from ./line on the Dosemu system is as follows: [root@lap ~]# ./line Terminal supports PC charset mode Vertical bar: Terminal supports alternate charset mode Vertical bar: [root@lap ~]# setterm -dump However, if I enter alt-179 on the command line, I get this character: '³'. On the other system if I do ./line, this character is displayed as '³', although the other info from the program is exactly the same. Thank you for trying to help! Lars
