Problem: I recently got a VT240 terminal and would like to
display pictures on it using the two bit-planes available.  So
far, I can display pictures using sixel graphics and generating
my own pixels which consist of a 3 by 3 matrix of the VT240
pixels.
 
Question: Can I use sixel graphics and address the two bit
planes?  Is there a neat way to do it using REGIS?  Also (a
collegue of mine would like to know) can one do a PrintScreen
which will dump the graphics too?
 
Thank you in advance, Edi.
