Did that but it still didn't look quite right.  Trying to get it to look like
the old Novell utilities (syscon) - I know I'm dating myself!

Yep that is what I have it set to.  I'm seeing q's and x's where lines should
be and a's where the background characters are supposed to be.

Yep I'm running 1.0 - I guess I wasn't seeing where to get a newer version.
Just went to the website and downloaded.  That was under Windows.  Under my
linux desktop I'm
just using putty but I can probably just use the built in terminal.

Yep the wiki.  I didn't know if it would help so I just did it anyway since the
docs said it can't hurt.
