Re: [Kind of OT] Why's this look like gibberish to me?

$ mutt -v
Mutt 1.5.17 (2007-11-01)

[...]

System: Linux 2.6.24-1-686 (i686)

[...]

$ locale | grep LANG
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

$ mlterm -v
mlterm version 2.9.4 

and the font I use is Terminus. I only see some dashes and spaces, but I 
guess there are some fonts missing. On the console I see dashes and 
diamonds. With xfce4-terminal and the Monospace font (I'm guessing it's 
actually DejaVu) I can see the characters correctly (as far as I can 
tell).

Regards,
Andrei
P.S. Now I'll reconsider switching to xfce4-terminal, though it starts 
slower than mlterm
