- I have a colleague who's trying to write a factory status display application
- that requires VT100-style screen positioning, line character 'graphics', AND
- also ANSI escape sequence handling for color.
-
- TNGLASS handles the colors, but not the line drawing, and VT100 sequences don't
- appear to map completely to just ANSI.SYS.
- TN (VT) handles the line drawing and positioning, but not the colors at all.
-
- Is there a compromise technique or set of options?
