Updated DEC Line Graphics character set to use Unicode 3.2.0 characters where appropriate
Four characters in DEC Special Graphics (Line Drawing)⁽¹⁾ charset were translated by Konsole into codepoints in private use area.
This patch uses the same code points that xterm uses.
| Index | Previously | Should be |
|---|---|---|
0x6F |
U+F800 |
U+23BA |
0x70 |
U+F801 |
U+23BB |
0x72 |
U+F803 |
U+23BC |
0x73 |
U+F804 |
U+23BD |
The old behavior used the same mapping used by Linux consoles, as stated
in unicode.txt⁽²⁾ in Linux's documents. This has been changed long ago
when Unicode 3.2.0 introduced the codepoints U+23BA, U+23BB, U+23BC,
U+23BD, as the following excerpt of unicode.txt says:
In addition, the following characters not present in Unicode 1.1.4
have been defined; these are used by the DEC VT graphics map. [v1.2]
THIS USE IS OBSOLETE AND SHOULD NO LONGER BE USED; PLEASE SEE BELOW.

[v1.3]: These characters have been officially added to Unicode 3.2.0;
they are added at U+23BA, U+23BB, U+23BC, U+23BD. Linux now uses the
new values.Edited by André Kugland
