Subject: [Q] special characters on the screen
Date: Mon, 28 Jun 1993 00:49:38 GMT


Hello Linuxers,
  I have some questions about displaying special characters on the screen :

1. Is it possible to display extended ASCII char (128 to 255 under DOS)
   on 80x25 text mode ? and on XTerm ?

2. If it is possible, what should I do while writing C programs to
   display them ? (I want to port a program from DOS to Linux, but I get
   in trouble with the graphic characters.) In addition, I have a program
   called atp which can display graphic characters under 80x25, but fail
   to display them in XTerm. Why ? Do I have some settings wrong ?

Thanks in advance.
