    I was very proud in working out how to get bold and underline working on a green screen.

        What about the extra character sets (were they there then or was it the VT terminals, cannot remember?) where you could make little space invader games:

        Code:
        <oo>   <-->
         //      \\
        etc
        If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.
