Note 1:
Codes 1528-1568, 1618, and 1648-1708 are used to draw rectangular grids; each piece
of this line drawing set is contiguous with others so that the lines formed are unbroken.
Note 2:
Codes 1578-1638 give better vertical resolution than dashes and underlines when drawing
graphs; using these segments 120 × 132 resolution may be obtained in 132 column
mode with the Advanced Video Option installed.
