VK100 (aka GIGI) lets you do ReGIS graphics and optionally download BASIC programs to run on the client. It implements VT52 (ANSI) by default, but you could easily extend it to support full VT102 or VT400 codes too.

This looks like an interesting rabbit hole. I have heard of ReGIS graphics but am not familiar with the standard implementations or the VK100 terminal. Is it widely supported?

Thanks for the heads up and interesting manual, vaxman! This might lead to some interesting possibilities/magic for a future version, or alternative drawing program.
