them in the form they appear on the screen: either Unicode line
drawing code points, or the \q{poor man's} line-drawing characters
-\c{+}, \c{-} and \c{|}. The checkbox \q{Paste VT100 line drawing
-chars as lqqqk} disables this feature, so line-drawing characters
-will be pasted as the ASCII characters that were printed to produce
-them. This will typically mean they come out mostly as \c{q} and
-\c{x}, with a scattering of \c{jklmntuvw} at the corners. This might
-be useful if you were trying to recreate the same box layout in

characters displayed using Unicode will paste as Unicode always.
