I am connected to a RHEL5 machine via Putty over a SSH connection.

typing make gives me the compilation results of CC.

Except the strings that should show quotes ", show as â (accented a)?!

it's a putty issue. Change the translation type to UTF-8 and you should be OK.

Excellent, via Window->Translation--Remote character set :-
Was : ISO-8859-1:1998 (Latin-1, West Europe)
Now : UTF-8

Solved this issue!

Many thanks.
