My newest Rh 8.0 machine has strange 'man' behaviour. On local terminals, it does not create a problem, but when telnet'ing in from another type of system, the unusual characters output do not work. This is a fresh install of RH8.0 with RHN used to bring all installed packages up to date. In the attached transcript, the \E2\80\E2\80\90 is the HEX representation of the characters output. That sequence is a dash (-) when it is rendered locally. Does anyone know of a way to turn this behaviour off and not send non-ascii characters to the screen? Thank you for your time. man up2date -P cat UP2DATE(8) Red Hat Linux System Manual UP2DATE(8) NAME Update Agent \E2\88\92 a program for updating packages on Red Hat Linux SYNOPSIS up2date [OPTION]...
