lines not aligned in putty, after a tail -f in a command


I use putty to access my Server Ubuntu. In the console, when I start a tail -f, everything is fine. But if I start this from a command (in a shortcut, I write putty.exe -m see_log.txt), the result is horrible :putty screenshot

and not easily readable. How can I solve it? Thanks


Solution

  • Enable this function and save as a default setting on your putty configuration: http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/0.53b/htmldoc/Chapter4.html#4.3.3
