Extended ASCII characters on Framebuffer Console
I've got a fairly simple question, that after some web searching, I can not find an answer for, or if it can be done.
I use syncterm or telnet to log into bulletin boards. These display ANSI graphics using the extended ASCII character set (I believe Code Page 437?).
I can get these in an XTERM using the vga font specially made, but I want to do this using the framebuffer console (the one you get pressing CTRL-ALT-F2).
I can change fonts using the setfont command and the fonts under /lib/kbd/consolefonts, but none of them display ANSI screens accurately. Some better than others, but none are right.
Is there a way to do it?
