   Humm, the command above didn't work in my system,
   that is, it continues to display hollow box at end of line.

That is a problem.  It means that different machines have different
possibilities.  I fear that only ASCII is common to them all.  In that
case, the end of line should be a dollar sign (octal 44, decimal 36,
hexadecimal 24).  I don't like it.  A dollar sign is heavy, ?\u21b5 is
good -- but it is not within the ASCII range and of those glyphs that
are, the dollar sign is the best for this purpose.

Perhaps you could provide an option for ?\u21b5.  Certainly, the
documentation should mention it.
