Symbols for Legacy Computing Supplement is a Unicode block containing additional graphic characters that were used for various home computers from the 1970s and 1980s. It includes characters from Amstrad, Apple 8-bit, Kaypro CP/M, Ohio Scientific, Robotron KC, Sharp MZ computers, HP terminals, and TRS-80. It includes a set of semigraphics in the form of 230 "octant" characters, large images split into four "characters", and the "large type" characters used for building large text characters.[3]
