This did work for "pstree" but seriously broke functionality in Vim, an
app that is heavily used via SSH.
I did notice something interesting, though. If I set (in Kermit)
Terminal Type: vt220
Terminal Remote-Charset: cp437
pstree works fine but ViM doesn't. If I set the Remote-Charset, in
Kermit, to utf8 I again get the same behavior that I did when using
linux/cp437.
What emulation/charset does Gentoo use, by default, for SSH connections?
(I'm assuming this is an issue with Gentoo because this functionality
works fine on MDK and Fedora, for example--systems I'm migrating away
from. :-D )
On Fedora Core 1 & Mandrake 9.2 (both use TERM=linux), I get the
following output using linux/utf8:
