Dear Netters: Does anybody know how could I write a program to covert a binary file to SIXEL file so that I can read normal chinese characters on a DEC VT240 terminal ? I am currently reading Chinese news on a VAX/VMS system and DEC VT240 terminal. However, the chinese characters look very BIG. I can read only 5 characters per line (80 Column) and 8 characters per line (132 columns). Somebody in other university could convert the chinese binary file into a sixel file so I get very neat and smaller chinese characters. But he said that his program to convert the files is not very good. So I was wondering if anybody know where I can find such a program or who has such a program and will share it with us. Thanks very much in advance. Dai YingShi daiyingshi@yvax.byu.edu
