Has anybody looked at the AALib (Ascii Art) graphics library?
I have only just started to become acquainted with the source for DOSEMU,
but from what I've seen of how we currently handle graphics mode for the
console, I think that this crazy idea might just work.
If we could modify the existing video code to use AALib instead of VGALib,
we would have approximated full video mode for terminals and telnet
sessions. There is even a drop-in replacement version of VGALib available.
I can see it now ..... Doom for VT-100!!!! ;-)
