This depends entirely on the terminal (or emulator) in use; I just now
tried sending 0x9b 0x63 to one of my windows and got a greater-or-equal
sign and a lowercase c, nothing odd at all.

If you're going to blindly assume 00-20, 7f, and 9b, you probably want
to hit all of C1 space as well, as in

+    else if (c.c < 0x20 || (c.c >= 0x7F && c.c <= 0x9F)) {

(I'm assuming c.c is a specifically unsigned char, or something wider
than a char, or the "< 0x20" test breaks the whole high half anyway).
