    Hello,

    I'd like to know what the typical reason for this is. I'm debugging a
    program I've written, and to make sure I'm using sscanf( ) and strcpy(
    ). However, when it gets done puting the data on stdout, the program is
    supposed to prompt me for action.

    What is displayed is really weird text. No English alphabetic
    characters, just right angled shapes and stuff. What normally alters
    the character set of stdout (don't know if I worded that correctly)?

    Andy
