And indeed the reason here seems to be that some of the box-drawing characters are taken from a different font. Could it be that the same happens on your system? If you press and hold the right arrow key on the first line with the boxes (the 3rd line of the file, starting from top), do you see the block cursor sometimes becoming slightly larger? If so, the characters where it becomes larger come from a different font, which is slightly taller than the default font; delete those taller characters, and the gaps should disappear. They did here.
