Hello Wilfred.

OK. Your terminal works in IBM850, but you run golded may try to run in UTF-8. That won't work and it worked before just because golded was not initializing correctly!

Question. What is your XLatLocalSet in GoldEd?

 VA>> What terminal do you use? TERM variable.

 WvV> # sudo -u fido echo $TERM
 WvV> xterm

 VA>> Do you use local console or remote/ssh?

 WvV> Both, but this test I only did in my local console.

I don't expect any difference, but it may be some.
