Maybe I was not clear enough. I was talking about
#define BOXVERT '|'
#define BOXHORI '-'
in userdefs.h.
My terminal program doesn't support alternate character sets. If I use the
VT100 character set I also get the DEC box-drawing characters but I loose
the ISO 8859-1 characters, which I need more than the box-drawing
characters.
When using Lynx compiled with SVR4 curses or ncurses, if I have
acsc=``aaffggjjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz{{||}}~~
in my terminfo or
ac=``aaffggjjkkllmmnnooppqqrrssttuuvvwwxxyyzz{{||}}~~
in my termcap (depends on the OS) and I'm using the VT100 character set, I
get the DEC box-drawing characters. If I don't have acsc or ac in my
terminfo or termcap and I'm using any ASCII-compatible character set, Lynx
draws the boxes with the characters defined in BOXVERT and BOXHORI, "|" and
"-" (it seems that the corner character is automaticaly set by curses). This
way:
+----------+
| |

+----------+
If I have acsc or ac and I'm using ISO 8859-1, the character set I always
use, I see the boxes this way:
ìññññññññññë
ø ø
ø ø
ø ø
ø ø
íññññññññññê
With Lynx compiled with Slang, I always get the box-drawing characters when
I use the VT100 character sets and that ugly thing above when I use ISO
8859-1.
I was asking to extend the BOXVERT and BOXHORI to Slang, if possible.
