in the days of my youth the above table was the only thing
that could be displayed on a computer terminal

all the chars 128 and above were either undefined or used
for multilingual variations (mostly European)

sometimes corner angles and half-tone (hash) chars were
accessible but often required a special code-sequence
to switch the video-terminal into a different mode

user-defined-fonts or font-switching was almost unheard of

OEM fonts were defined by the major VDU manufacturers and they
were free to define the char range 128-256 as they pleased

modern fonts today still inherit these properties

thus the only guaranteed char shapes in _all_ fonts
are the chars produced by the codes 32 thru' 127 decimal
