Hey Nicholas!

 NB> I don't think it pertains much to what I'm referring to

It now seems that way.

 NB> everything works quite a bit better (display-wise) than Golded

That I believe.

 NB> using putty to access my NNTP server

On a linux box?  I see from the source that it requires a gui, uses gtk as a dependency, so it isn't a true hardcore console based terminal application which explains why you can see Chinese characters displayed.  putty emulates an xterm on linux from my understanding of it as opposed to the linux terminal sans xorg which is what I am currently using.

Life is good,
Maurice
