I found the double-width mode on VT100's to be particularly
interesting - especially since it took no extra space and only
applied to one line. I think I did something like
	^[#5@_^H
which set the double mode, then backspaced the cursor over the
underscore. With the characters on the Incoterm 20-20 (yes, THAT)
"<command, sire?>" came out nice. With the Visual 200, I moved to
"YES, SIRE? " (Gotta remember who's boss! 8-)

What one could do (and has done) to others I won't discuss. If I
wanted to, I could still be one of the best "bad guys" around.
