True, it shouldn't. But just in case I had already tried 'chcp 437' with no success.

Of course! :-)

I checked on "SysOp Name". I cannot type "\" there.

I'll try later...

But as I said, in versions 2.2 and older it works fine. Maybe something related to the changes for supporting Linux?

Is anyone else having this issue? Michiel?
