At the Sun. meeting Aaron and I were discussing the line-drawing
characters, and I had trouble making the sequence work -- of course,
at home, it works perfectly;^O
  The escape sequence in s gnome terminal or xterm to switch to the
box characters is:
echo -e "\x1b(0"
and to turn back, the sequence
echo -e "\x1b(B"
or use the terminal tab/reset in the gnome terminal
