Among all the variations on the ANSI.SYS drivers out there, are there
any that attempt to deal with the vt100 alternate character set (graphics
characters)?  If you look at the way hyperascii and control characters
show up on the PC screen, you could match up a subset of the vt100 graphics
characters to them - specifically, the box forming characters in alternate
character set mode could at least be supported by translation to various
hyperascii and control characters.
