Thank you.
Now I pick up some pieces of code from the emacswiki and put them in a
function as:
(defun my-gnus-summary-line-format-ascii-fancy ()
"Use fancy ASCII graphics to display thread tree."
(interactive)
(setq gnus-summary-line-format
(concat
"%0{%U%R%z%u&@;%}"
"%10{|%}"
"%1{%d%}"
"%10{|%}"
"%( %-15,15f %)"
"%10{|%}"
"%4k"
"%10{|%}"
"%2u&score;"
"%10{|%}"
"%u&thread;%s\n"))
(unless standard-display-table
(setq standard-display-table (make-display-table)))
(dolist (c '((?\207 . ?q) (?\216 . ?x) (?\212 . ?t) (?\203 . ?m)))
(aset standard-display-table (car c)
(vector (create-glyph (concat "\e(0" "\e[36m" ; magenta
(char-to-string (cdr c))
"\e[0m" "\e(B")))))
(setq gnus-sum-thread-tree-vertical "\216"
gnus-sum-thread-tree-root ""
gnus-sum-thread-tree-false-root ""
gnus-sum-thread-tree-indent " "
gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-indent ""
gnus-sum-thread-tree-leaf-with-other "\212\207>"
gnus-sum-thread-tree-single-leaf "\203\207>")
(gnus-message 5 "Using fancy ascii tree layout."))
The thread tree can be displayed in emacs starting in gnome-terminal
or xterm etc. but with strange background color. See the screen shot.

However, if started in virtual console (Ctrl-Alt-F1), it is display as
"mq>" etc.
Any ideas?
Again thank you for your help.
