It also highly depends on the font you use. If I look at it it in a 
PuTTY session which uses the Terminus font (note 3 software pieces 
involved here, the FreeBSD (n)curses or whatever is used as the 
line-drawing-ouput-software (and it depends on the "TERM" config in the 
shell), the PuTTY terminal emulator as a render device (and whever you 
configure in Window->Translation), and the font which you could think of 
as a "theme" in this case), it looks different than with the Consolas 
font or the Source Code Pro font (Terminus doesn't produce lines/bars, 
you clearly see every character, whereas the other two fonts have 
uninterrupted lines). And on the FreeBSD console it may look differently 
again.

Bye,
Alexander.
