Not a lot of conversation in LINUX, so since I was speaking directly to
Maurice, I wrote it here instead. *shrug*

But if another conversation starts because of your cross-post, then you
accomplished something! ;)

That's the same way I'm going about it. Remote console via putty with tmux on
my RPi3.

Line drawing characters display fine in X (xterm, gnome-terminal, konsole,
etc), but ever since I went strictly UTF-8 it wouldn't display them properly in
a TTY until I started using tmux.

As for the character marking the current message, you're referring to the
actual arrow and not ">", right? That changed here as well.

And by CTRL-Z I'm guessing you're referring to the internal golded editor? I
don't use that here, so CTRL-X in nano or :x in vim. ;)

Yes. And if you used an unicode capable editor you would know that! ;)
