What means
It is one patterned tile in a text-based graphic. Early home computers used semigraphics: character cells broken into small filled areas to draw pictures on a text display. NEC's PC-8001 used 24 semigraphics when it was announced in 1979, an example of the same eight-area idea. The Unicode proposal preserves legacy graphics for exchanging old character data and supporting emulators. Here, 3, 6, and 7 identify the selected fill areas.
