Therefore, as a perfect newbye in FreeBSD I have just installed the devel= oper stuff with x support and the ports of version 5.3. After having compiled the Midnight Commander mc from the ports' sources I noticed that running mc the various "rectangles" framing the tree struc= tures of the filesystem are not correctly displayed and built with a combinatio= n of '-' and '|' but with a weird combination of '=E7' and '=F9'. What should I do straighten things up (I admit, I have been manipulating the fonts without knowing what I was doing!!)? A step by step explamnation would be highly appreciated.
