More demos of the virtual terminal

Here are a few more animated screenshots demonstrating the virtual terminal in Punix.

This one demonstrates some escape codes for clearing parts of the current line or screen:


This demonstrates scrolling the screen up and down:


This demonstrates the use of the graphics character set, invoked with the Shift In (SI) character, or Ctrl-N:


This last screenshot demonstrates the compose key feature, which is similar to Multi_key in X:

Currently the driver uses the MODE key as the compose key, as that was one of the few obvious choices for this function. The digraphs I used in the demo are as follows:

Digraph	Resulting character
U'	Ü
^0	°
12	½
ss	ß
L-	£
xo	¤
so	§
