I'm sure this has been asked many times before. I'd like to know how to get my fonts in a console session of session to look decent. Right now, line draw and fill characters look terrible.

I know that one! The "ibm" character set:
$_term_char_set = "ibm"

Okay, here's the upshot after reading all your replies (many thanks!). Only one setting was needed: $_graphics (1). Of course that means I can only run that as root (or it has no effect). No other settings talked about here helped, other than that one.

I also find that Shift Tab does indeed work, as long as I use rawkeyboard.

Thanks again.
