  21. Sixel was originally intended as a way to send images to dot-matrix printers
  22. like the LA50.  It is also supported by the VT340 and up.  The only Kermit
  23. program that supports it, presently, is MS-DOS Kermit.  OS/2 C-Kermit can't
  24. do it because it is a console mode application, which is not allowed to
  25. use graphics.  Ditto for Kermit 95.
