Mmm... try to force SETEdit to use ISO-8859-1 always even on screen and 
on everything, and try to tell SecureCRT and Putty to use ISO-8859-1 too.
If that doesn't work, then you may try to use XOrg from the 
http://www.cygwin.org/ project and "export DISPLAY=ipaddressofwindows:0" 
and start SETEdit when the XOrg server is running.
Don't use the options of no-listen-tcp for XOrg and remember to do 
"xhost +ipaddressoflinux" under an xterm of XOrg or on the xinitrc or 
xsession files.
Another alternative is to use VNC, you can run a vncserver (it is an X 
server and at the same time a VNC server) on Linux, make SETEdit connect 
to it and use a vncclient on windows, there are various versions.

Unix terminals are very complex, they come from ancient history and the 
worst thing of that is that they are still being used, as xterms, the 
Linux native text console, etc. etc.... they have some nice features but 
they are very complex and make interoperability a PITA... :-(
