Troubleshooting

IRC Client

IRCCloud doesn't work very well. It's monospaced font is Iconsolata, served up by Google Web Fonts, which doesn't draw the block characters correctly. In addition it appears to ignore several lines. Don't use IRCCloud, it's for people who habitually make bad decisions in life. Works best with a terminal based client.

Terminal

Don't use reverse video, just make foreground white on black background, but not bright white, there should be two different whites, bright white and grayish white, 16 unique colors in all.

Font

The font you use needs to be monospaced obviously but if its missing some of the block drawing unicode characters its going to borrow them from another font, which will probably having a different width, resulting in poor alignment and jagged edges. Andale Mono is the best I've found so far.
