- Every once in a while, I try to type a binary file
- and my charcters all get shifted to graphics. Upper case
- is OK, and if I logout and login with ALL CAPS, it will
- run and I can read everything again (without lower case,
- of course). Is there any way to fix this? It only happens on
- one VC, the rest are fine.
-
- I have had this problem with other unix systems
- and never learned how to fix it.
