I have successfully done that with a real VT220. Here
are some .txt
files with samples. They upload a custom font and arrange characters on

The naming of the git repository confused me a bit. I needed more
coffee and time to realize that this is more about soft fonts (the
thread subject) than it is about Sixel graphics.
Unfortunately the version of XTerm that I'm using apparently doesn't
support soft fonts. So I don't get to see the pictures.
Aside: Would you please take a picture of some of the output from the
samples on a VT220 or other soft font supporting terminal (emulator) so
those of us under equipped can enjoy them too?
