I would think that using echo with the raw bytes would work. Hope your work
continues to progress. Thanks!

@NiKiZe Thanks!
I tried a few things but it seems that im unable to get the UCS-2 or 2byte char

@steverweber ASCII is 7bit, = max char 127, Extended ASCII is not really
defined here, BIOS mode is often CP437 but no guarantees, iPXE just outputs
puts bytes on the output buffer, then BIOS/EFI is responsible for how that is
displayed. (From what I understood EFI is always UCS-2)

echo custom UTF16 char.

Thanks for pointing out DPP, I got deeper into this project last night and
found that I cant use the nice ASCII chars 219,220,254 when using ipxe under
efi mode booting from vmware EXI. Seems to be in a Unicode mode.
```
set d:int8 220
echo ${d:string}
