Sub-character resolution #5

Closed sgreben closed 6 years ago

sgreben commented 6 years ago

Other libraries - for example, termui - use braille symbols (⣀⡠⡐⡈ etc.) to effectively double the plot resolution. It would be nice if we could do that also (probably by default / simply instead of the current full-block character).

sgreben commented 6 years ago

Actually, braille gives us 8 pixels / character if we use it like UnicodePlots. This would also make scatterplots much more useful.

AShedko commented 6 years ago

For a more mature package, perhaps one could look into drawille

Although Julia's type system is more similar to Go than Python's

Added braille (2x4) & quarter-block (2x2) canvas in 1.1.0.
