Author here. Thanks and welcome :)
Dynamically Redefined Character Set (DRCS) was introduced with DEC VT200 and even though online information is scarce, there is enough there to make it work on a real machine.
Even more interesting are the Yugoslavian/Slovenian video terminals with their own custom graphics modes and features - it is a lost art but we at the Museum are working on bringing it back!
- markostamcar 6y agoAnd there is also ReGIS / Remote Graphic Instruction Set by DEC - unfortunately none of our terminals support it.
- Tepix 6y agoYesh, i think some xterm programs do support it and i remember toying around with it in the 90s. That stuff was already obscure even then.
