Thanks, everyone. I was able to get the NOTES box drawing elements to
display correctly by changing the following PuTTY settings:

Window > Translation

   Remote character set: UTF-8 --> ISO-8859-1
   Override with UTF-8 if locale says so: ON --> OFF

   (Box drawing elements displayed correctly with just the above
    changes, but I added the following for good measure.)

Connection > Data

   Terminal type string: xterm --> vt400

I also put SET TERMINAL/DEVICE_TYPE=VT400 in my LOGIN.COM (for some
reason I previously had it set to "VT500").
