What is a "sixel" ?
The VT220 programmer pocket guide mentions sixels when it defines
how one can create new character sets (p. 30). Since it may take
eons to get the more complete VT220 Programmers Reference Manual
can someone tell me what this means or could someone tell me how to
make a user-defined character set?
thanks
