Strange character (UNIX)

I just created a scrollable field for a char*160 sized item in the database.
 
Used the following syntax: 
 
FOR 1,60 
 
The PH Unix manual says: 
 
The "<" symbol indicates that there are undisplayed characters to the left
of 
the scrollable field.  Similarily, the ">" symbol indicates that there are 
undisplayed characters to the right of the scrollable field. 
 
Why am I getting a '?' for both?  This is new.  Is there a terminal setting 
wrong here?  Is this just the way it is on UNIX.  I thought it might be 
indicative of something larger.  Is it?
