Thanks for that and for such a quick response. Looks like it turns off localization. That’s consistent with the fact that I always have to switch on UTF-8 encoding in order to read the error messages from the compiler on the Ubuntu machine as well.

This also happens with newer Debian machines as well IIRC.

If the target Ubuntu machine has vi, no problems, if vim, then a problem. My current hack is to export LANG=C. I have not had time to find root cause.

For example, if I scroll down by more than one line, e.g. using ctrl-f, I get an overlay of the first screen and the new screen. I don’t have this problem using the OS X terminal app, so I’m guessing there’s something fishy with the X11 app?
