Hi there;



I am trying to render a special character, say the

CHECKBOX_ON character, on a position on the second

line of my LCD screen.



On the line, it is showing "Save <V>   Cancel <x>".

My intention is to replace the 'V' character with

the icon CHECKBOX_ON while keeping the rest of the

display line.



My Perl client application is sending the following

command over the LCDproc Socket:



"widget_add Client1 wcheckbox icon CHECKBOX_ON\n"



then,



"widget_set Client1 wcheckbox icon 6 2 CHECKBOX_ON\n"



On my screen, I got a '?' character displayed at the

first location of the first line.



Please tell me what have I done wrong here? Do you have

any Perl example application for rendering special

characters?



Thank you.

Regards,

Kiet
