XXXX for separators

[jungle-boogie]

Hi,

Thanks for continuing to work on sngrep - it's such a great project.

What causes sngrep to have this display and is there a way to fix it?

Hi @jungle-boogie

Try setting this environment before runing sngrep

export NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS=1

Regards!

Hi @Kaian,

Sorry, friend, that didn't make a difference.

 $ export NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS=1
 $ echo $NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS
1

 $ echo $TERM
xterm

Well I found a solution when using putty:
change settings → window → translation → remote char set → "use font encoding"

Good to hear that!

I'll work on making UTF-8 characters display correctly on future versions, after all SIP is UTF-8.

Thanks for reporting Jungle!

for me the solutions to this problem is to add this to ~/.bashrc | ~/.zshrc to my local MacOS
export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8
