Troubleshooting

IRC Client

Most clients work fine assuming you're using a good font (see below.) Mirc has problems rendering Unicode with colors.

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, as shown below:

Color Regular Bold
Black #000000 (0, 0, 0) #555555 (85, 85, 85)
Red #aa0000 (170, 0, 0) #ff5555 (255, 85, 85)
Green #00aa00 (0, 170, 0) #55ff55 (85, 255, 85)
Yellow #aa5500 (170, 85, 0) #ffff55 (255, 255, 85)
Blue #0000aa (0, 0, 170) #5555ff (85, 85, 255)
Magenta #aa00aa (170, 0, 170) #ff55ff (255, 85, 255)
Cyan #00aaaa (0, 170, 170 ) #55ffff (85, 255, 255)
White #aaaaaa (170, 170, 170) #ffffff (255, 255, 255)

Font

Try Andale Mono or Menlo for Mac. Deja Vu Sans for Linux, Lucida Console Windows.

If the font you use is missing some of the block drawing unicode characters its going to borrow them from another font, which will probably having a different width than the original font.
