Braille compatible command line output #18

Is it possible for a contributor to add a mode that outputs the data to the command line in a way that can be panned around?

I'm from Bristol Braille and we and a Braillist are working on creating a fully tactile map of the night sky. We will be using the Canute Console which is a 40 cell by 9 line tactile output which precisely mirrors the terminal output. If star-docker could output directly to the command line, and be panned around from the command line, then the Canutr Console's built in conversion will do the rest and that will create one of the first fully spacial and digital tactile maps of the night sky for blind people.
