TERM type ANSI
Voltron
Whenever I try to JED a program or record it automatically start
insterting strange charatcters in row 1. And all I can do is close
out of my telnet session.
The reason I want ANSI is that my programs use colour and with VT100
and VT220 I don't get to use that.

You probably do not have your terminal type set correctly on the server.
What does the 'TERM' command display?
If you set 'TERM=ansi' in the '.profile' or 'remote.cmd', does that help?

I have put set TERM=ANSI in my remote.cmd file but that doesn't do the
trick.
Do you also have the terminal type set correctly in the telnet client?
What does the 'TERM' command display? This will confirm that the setting is correct.
Do these 'strange characters' appear on a console session?
What telnet client are you using?
Is there a '.jedrc' file in the cwd? If so, what are its contents?

TERMINAL NAME: ANSI
TERMINAL WIDTH: 80 PRINTER WIDTH: 132
DEPTH: 24 DEPTH: 64
When I go to the server and use JSH, I do not get these strange
characters.
I am just going to a command prompt and type TELNET JBASE. So it is
the Windows telent client.

The solution is to use a telnet client that supports the emulations you require. The one I am partial too is SecureCRT

JED should work with the Windows Telnet client as long as the emulation is ‘VT100’ – Per your desire to use colors for other applications, you might want to write a wrapper for JED that sets TERM VT100 before loading, and back to ANSI when done.
That said, I agree with Dan that you should consider getting a better telnet client. Windows Telnet is okay in a pinch, but otherwise, um, sucks.

When I do a TERM on the server's JSH exectuable that is the what it
tells me it is using.

Does that securecrt program understand the 'ntcon' TERMINAL NAME?

Yes. If you look at the actual terminfo definitions that jBASE provides (%JBCRELEASEDIR%\src\jbase_nt.ti), you will see that 'ansi' is a synonym for 'ntcon'.
And thanks Tom, I stand corrected about VT100. I don't use the Windows Telnet Client except, as you say, in a pinch :-)

Dan, I didn’t know VT100 worked until somebody told me. Until then I cursed vehemently every time I accidentally JED-edited with windows telnet client (and still do if I forget to set TERM first...).

it look exactly as if I was logged in through the JSH executable on
the server?
Because when I run a program from the server it looks perfect. I get
my lines and boxes just like I should. But when I use telnet my lines
and boxes come up as letters and characters.

display correctly. What works for us is: Anita Terminal Emulator set to DEC
vt100 and a character set of IBM PC (OEM).
These settings are surprisingly random between various emulators. But one
thing is for sure, you'll need to have use an emulator that can use the
appropriate character set.

Thank you.
Out of curiosity, what did you set the host platform at?

on RedHat 9) I'm not sure what this setting does precisely or even if it has
much of an affect.

www.anzio.com . It works perfectly in both ANSI and "native" ANZIO
emulations, which is supported by jBASE 4.1 as well. Anzio returns the
term type to the Telnet server so that there's no need to get bothered
about setting this up. Anzio supports various combinations of
codepages in host/clent/printer, including UTF-8 with additional
support for Linux specifics. It's definitely the best product in the
market.
