Thank you for the drawterm suggestion. It continues to be a possible
alternative, if I fail to get 9front graphics working directly.
But I would first have to get 9front without graphics working, and then
start on drawterm.
Since the x86 alternative already has most of graphics out-of-the-box, I
consider it to be a better starting point.

Best Wishes,
bengt
