I couldn't get it to work with SJIS, either.  Try the alternate one I
gave in the same message.

It points to the same site above for downloading.

I ran into a problem that might be related.  It is documented in
Japanese here:

http://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA024651/terminfo.html

Basically, if you use box drawing characters, sometimes it messes up EUC
decoding.  You're probably using TERM=xterm.  Using TERM=kterm might
avoid the problem.

Alternatively, you can try setting "Initialisation code" to "lockgr
euc-jp" (no qoutes) instead, and resetting the terminal.  This will make
it work like Teraterm, rxvt, etc, but is actually not compliant with ISO
2022 according to the author.
