Under DOS and Win32 command shells, you can print out characters 3,4,5, & 6 to print out symbols used on cards. Is there a way to do this under Linux? I'd also like to print out some extended ACSII, such as the shaded box.

You need a console that supports the IBM extended ASCII character set (which is what Windows and DOS use), or Unicode.
For shaded boxes and other widgets, libcurses is probably your best bet.

if you change the console to use cp437 (codepage 437, the IBM charset used in DOS) it might work.
never done this myself, figure it out :)
