Brian thanks again for posting the ROMs.
They dropped directly into my new project unmodified!

In the emulator I am working on. Ow, I have to redo the fonts. I'm
free to use whatever I want.
So, which one of these fonts is actually used by the dvi? The 8x8
or the 7x8?

Ooh! There are actually two fonts in the 4K ROM
Here's the second one

This is the same font, but with only 7 bits used. I'm betting
this is the same as the internal font on the M100 itself. Here's
one of the characters (255) for comparison:

totally going to add this as an optional font in my terminal

You know what, I realize that I went straight to that
screen photo image because I was looking for a clear
image that had my X<char>X pattern in 80-column mode...
and it's really not so blurry, but the capture in
"Snapshot_20210127_233755.jpg" is sharper and does have
the full character set showing. Even though they're
flanked by square brackets I think I can work with it.
(the square brackets don't go to the full left and right
extent of the character cell, that's why I used X.)
Don't worry about going to any trouble for a sharper
screen photo. For my cleanup/rescaling of the original
font I've been working off a handheld iphone photo of my
monitor.
I also whipped something up to display the ROM data as
large block pixels for an absolute reference to the
original intended shapes so I think I've got everything
I need (except time) :)
