It's easy to fix, if you don't want to use the graphics characters. Just type C= ESC (Commodore Escape) and you'll see the message {Graphics Disabled} in the status line. If the machine receives the graphics command by mistake again, it will just ignore the command sequence. This came from the first help file on the disk that had MicroVT on it (just hit the help key and select option 1 of the menu).
