However, from a FreeBSD console I get translated lower 127 ASCII characters (pluses, minuses, etc). Is there a quick fix for this? Granted, this is cosmetic, but in the classroom (I use FreeBSD for some networking courses) it looks just plain ugly. I tried vt100 console (change configs and recompile) instead of the regular console, but it didn't any much good.
