I would like to allow the end user to be able to select the level of terminal support.
For example, if the terminal they are using only supports VT100 escape code then they can call
ANSITerm.begin(VT100);Possible options:
ANSIESC
DECVT100
DECVT400
XTERM
LINUX
This would also allow ANSITerm to properly translate the different function keys and number pad keys sent by the different terminals. There may also be a way to do an auto detect as some terminals give a name in response to ^E which would let us determine the best mode to operate in for that terminal.
Maybe there would be a possibility of doing something with X11 support to do raster-graphics?
