So how different is a GIGI from something like a VT340+? I must
confess I lust after a VT340+. Not that I have room for one :^( I
don't have any terminals that support REGIS, and really wish I did.

Do you have DWMotif on any of your VMS systems? If so, DECterm will
emulate a vt340 and display
ReGIS graphics (color!). All you need is the software to drive it.
(And images to display.)

As I
recall it was connected
to the controller board in the VAX via a fibre optic cable.
That was the VS-100, which is of historical interest because it was
was what the X Window system was developed on.
GIGIs are raster termials using the REGIS command set.
"REGIS graphics GIGI" turns up a few interesting google hits.
