So my question is: why is that? Why would the default setting not work? Is it actually something that I need to be doing on the server (like changing the LANG setting), or is it with SecureCRT? And if so, can anyone give me any suggestions of what I need to be looking for and change?
you need to configure SecureCRT to do UTF, its probably using a ISO8559 type 8 bit encoding. this combination of settings works for me...
on the terminal->emulation, set Terminal to either Linux or Xterm, and uncheck alternate keyboard emulation. on the terminal->appearance, set a font that has unicode, like Lucida Console, or Consolas. do NOT use the vt100 family fonts.
now log out, and log back into the target system, and I bet 'tree' works.
re: those who say to use putty, while putty is free, SecureCRT has a lot of worthwhile features, I've been using it for years.
