So sleek and modern... Especially when compared to the Honeywell terminals I used in the
early 90's.
I've always lusted after a VT340+.
Does the VT525 support REGIS or SIXEL? It seems like the most practical terminal to buy
at this point, since it can use a VGA monitor.

I would LOVE to have a hardware terminal that did REGIS and SIXEL, it would look so cool

Regis first came out with one of the VT100 series terminals -- VT131? VT105? I forgot.
It also showed up, in lobotomized form, in the "GIGI" (don't bother
looking for one, they suck). It became more widespread in the VT240.
I'm pretty sure that a number of the X windows "xterm" style programs
support it. Perhaps not the original xterm, but there are lots of extended versions and
there should be some that handle this.
Sixel is probably more widely available since it's quite easy to implement.

Cool - what real terminals support this stuff anyway, from what I can gather a VT340
works, right?

Attachmate Reflection (Windows package) has a specific application that
implements Regis graphics - I know - I bought version 14 recently and
gnuplot will happily draw to it when the terminal type is set regis.
