 is not a graphic character, either questionmark or box. It is a character in the C1 control character set that has _no_ assigned meaning. Whether it gets displayed at all, and if displayed, how, are all undefined. When I run irssi with the sux theme, it's sending 0xB7, which is not a legal UTF-8 character, and not 0x81 (which also isn't, anyway). 0xB7 in the latin1 encoding is "middle dot" (probably the "square" you want); but since you're running in UTF-8 it's a nonsensical byte value. In gnome-terminal, either inside or outside of screen, 0xB7 is rendered as a question-mark. In urxvt inside of screen, I get full-character boxes, rather than question-marks. It's not guaranteed to be rendered in _any_ particular way, since it's not a meaningful byte value. It looks like the sux theme assumes a ISO-8859-* encoding, so if you want it to render properly in screen, you'll need to tell screen that it's in latin1 rather than UTF-8. For instance, turning _off_ UTF-8 mode in screen fixed the issue for me. - -- HTH, Micah J. Cowan Programmer, musician, typesetting enthusiast, gamer.
