Any answer to this will depend entirely on which termdef your session is set to. If you are using any XTERM such xterm; dterm etc then graphics is a totally different proposition and quite involved. However if you are set to vt100 or something similar then there is the extended character set using the escape sequence to draw simple lines. You first task then is to find out which TERM you are set to by using the command echo $TERM after this it is a case of discovering which escape sequences will draw the required shape.
Good luck.
