Question marks

Post by ragimiri »

Hi, after running FAR 2.0 (1263) I see question marks on some crossing of lines. In FAR 1.75 I was able to use parametr /8, but this does not works in FAR 2.0.

Cause: You are using a bitmap font, which contains glyphs only for a single 8-bit charset, which happens to not include the required characters (U+2564 Box drawings down single and horizontal double, U+255F Box drawings vertical double and right single, U+2562 Box drawings vertical double and left single).

Solution: Select a vector font in your console properties. Optionally, install a more pleasing monospaced font than is used by default. Andale Mono or Liberation Mono work nicely and are free to use, or, if you happen to run Windows 7, you might try Consolas. (Consolas from 2007 Office won’t do, as it doesn’t contain any box drawing glyphs.)

Thanks for help. (But I still think, that in 1.75 were lines drawn better.)
