If I run
xterm -e ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
or
gnome-terminal -x ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
from my Debian box "rat", then I get some strange chars in the manual
pages on the 'hpc' machine, eg for `man bash` the pipe char "|" comes
out as an "a" with a hat (^) above it (see attached screenshot) but I
can't see why this is happening.
If I, from a gnome-terminal just run
ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
then all is fine. And if I login to hpc from any other box, or it seems
login to any other box from "rat" then the chars appear as normal, as
far as I can see from a quick comparison.
I've no .Xresource nor .Xdefault in my home directory on "rat"
Here's the actual process list for how `man bash` is handled on
"hpc" (which is, err, interesting):
0 S mccssmb2 22223 22137 0 76 0 - 781 wait 11:54 pts/26

Any clues anybody?
Thanks, Michael
