Hi: Setting the charset to iso-8859-1 will kill off most of the charset wornings. Occasionally you'll see messages written in the windows-1212 charset (or something like that) which you'll just have to put up with, but it's not very common up here (wonder why). As for terminals, I presume you mean from windows to linux over a LAN or something. I've found hyperterminal private edition (from www.hilgraeve.com) to work pretty well most of the time, with a few anomolies (like it wants to be the first AP opened after a reboot). I've used it with JFW and it uses the same scripts the built-in hyperterminal uses. Your mileage may vary with other screen readers. Geoff.
