I think to install a barcode font on Windoze and switch to that will
give u barcodes on the VT, BUT that demands that u can read barcodes
as all char will be in barcode. (menus, text, all of it)

I only used this to make barcodes via a printer and then installed a
suitable charset for that, try changing to wingdings and its really
hard to understand VMS ;)

If u can make the terminal (some nice escape sequence) swithch between
different char sets or something and get KEA to do the same = problem
solved

A 340 has the possibility to draw graphics, of the top of my head I
dont recall if kea! supports regis graphics, but if its a 340 and not
320 then thats a possibility...
we use reflection and regis, and it should be possible (havent done
that) to write barcode...

Just thoughts... Havent dont that, not been there
