Glad to hear that. In that case text console in OpenBSD is not ASCII since I can pretty much both type and see those characters, right?! I mean, why say that it is ASCII-only if extended ASCII does not exist, yet those characters are displayed properly?

Probably it's defaulting to ISO-8859-1, which is a superset of ASCII for Western European languages.

I don't use OpenBSD.
