Noting the fact that blind people do not read braille on computer screens..

We conclude that the braille glyphs with connecting blocks are more suitable for terminal applications.

braille_box

Dot braille is less useful.
braille_dot

Suggest you revise agave to feature box-braille.

Hey clort, thanks for the issue. Personally, I agree, I do like using glyphs in gaming and graphical contexts, but recently in #45 I decided to abide by "ADA Accessibility Guidelines".

I think the way to go would be to provide these as variants (#72) and maybe default to the variant that would see the most use. I've also seen braille used to show quasi-graphical graphs (pretty tops, audio visualisation, etc.), so I do like the dotted variant as well.
