The users manual for the terminal explains the codes needed to drive the
terminal.  This is pretty easy to implement for someone who is used to
dealing with bit manipulations.  The drawback is that all you get with
this scheme is absolute screen addressable graphics.  If you want more
than this, the purchase price of a product is well worth it.  The amount
of time that can be spent developing axis labeling routines alone is
astronomical (if you don't believe me, talk to Murphy :-)  ).
