LJ SERIES 2D EMULATION

All alphabetic characters in the combined sequence must be
lowercase except for the last final parameter character which
is uppercase. The characters which would be final parameter
characters in uncombined escape characters are converted to
lowercase and referred to as parameter characters.

The commands are interpreted from left to right, so the
leftmost command (starting with escape) is executed first and
the rightmost command (ending with the final parameter
character and optionally binary data) is executed last.
