IMO, this would be an appropriate change. If you recall, I had made a similar proposal (through a private mail, a year ago).

Just issue the following command: consolechars -f ter-v16f [Declare a charset with the '-m' switch if required, see consolechars(8) for details.] BTW, Turkish is OK with ter-v16f. -- roktas
