I don't know is this is the correct place to ask, if not please direct me to the right place.

I am running the fp editor on mandrake 9.0. All my borders are not the normal lines but are the extended charactes I.E the a with a dash above and the like. It does not reconize keys F1 threw F4, yet the other F keys work???

Any ideas.

Are you running it from the console or an xterm ? The xterm doesn't emulate it well aparently (I have tried). Try running it from the console.

cheers

For me neither konsole, xterm and Gnome Terminal nor my framebuffer console works with right character set ;-(

Is the problem not perhaps the ascii set that is in use. Is it not perhaps possible to change it to something that works a bit better. Like when changing language character sets?? Brent
