 Subj : Test from Linux
----------------------------------------------------------------- Ins -
Hola All!, saludo cordial

This is a test message from my test node on linux running SBBS+Golded

started GoldEd linke this and itM-BM-4s displaying correctly
as Dennis Slaggers suggested,

TERM=screen.xterm-256color /usr/local/bin/golded -T600

* Findings accented characters "in spanish" M-BM-( do not show properly E.g. mM-CM-! <<<< as you can see here
* Backspace is broken

Not sure if weird characters show up on your side, but when I tried deleting them terminal kinda screwed up, so sorry about that.

Getting there, or so I think
