[HECnet] Terminal software (other than DECterm) that can do ReGIS and/or SIXEL graphics?

[Sampsa Laine]

BTW, if you want to play with creating SIXEL graphics, ImageMagick knows how to convert bitmaps to SIXEL...

I've put two examples in MEDIALIB on RHESUS, MONKEY.SIXEL and DIVE.SIXEL.

Regis first came out with one of the VT100 series terminals -- VT131?   =
VT105?   I forgot.   It also showed up, in lobotomized form, in the "GIGI" =
(don't bother looking for one, they suck).   It became more widespread in =
the VT240.

I'm pretty sure that a number of the X windows "xterm" style programs =
support it.   Perhaps not the original xterm, but there are lots of =
extended versions and there should be some that handle this.

Sixel is probably more widely available since it's quite easy to =
implement.

Cool - what real terminals support this stuff anyway, from what I can =
gather a VT340 works, right?

Attachmate Reflection (Windows package) has a specific application =
that
implements Regis graphics - I know - I bought version 14 recently and
gnuplot will happily draw to it when the terminal type is set regis.
