I'm guessing I can't be much help here; dunno
much re: terminals. However, I have noted that
nano recognized some stuff better than pico via
whatever terminal was the PuTTY default. I dunno
if that's going to help if you're in CLI, or some Xterm,
but it converted me. Besides, nano is just a more
modern pico anyway....
I've even got "alias pico nano" in my .cshrc..... :-)
Hopefully, someone with more experience/knowledge
re: terminals can get you the real help you need.
