Woot! after three seperate failing attempts I managed to get Unicode box drawing characters on NCurses to work through telnet using Ruby. All my attempts in the past either rendered with plain ascii or not at all, it was very ugly.

This will ultimately get integrated into the Open-source :opensource: Ruby :ruby: MUD I've been writing called Aethyr (a text-based mmorpg)

@freemo Sounds fantastic! Gotta love it when something finally works! :D Looking forward to seeing more about this mud you're working on!

@Gaffoonie its a rewrite of one i was originally doing in java. Been tinkering with it the past few weeks. Not playable yet but most of the core features are in place. Code is on github but likely not worth your time just yet.
