ANSI ESCAPE SEQUENCES ============================================================================= = Wherever you see '#', that should be replaced by the appropriate number. ESC code sequence Function ------------------- --------------------------- Cursor Controls: ESC[#;#H or ESC[#;#f Moves cusor to line #, column # ESC[#A Moves cursor up # lines ESC[#B Moves cursor down # lines ESC[#C Moves cursor forward # spaces ESC[#D Moves cursor back # spaces ESC[#;#R Reports current cursor line & column ESC[s Saves cursor position for recall later ESC[u Return to saved cursor position Erase Functions: ESC[2J Clear screen and home cursor ESC[K Clear to end of line Set Graphics Rendition: ESC[#;#;....;#m Set display attributes where # is 0 for normal display 1 for bold on 4 underline (mono only) 5 blink on 7 reverse video on 8 nondisplayed (invisible) 30 black foreground 31 red foreground 32 green foreground 33 yellow foreground 34 blue foreground 35 magenta foreground 36 cyan foreground 37 white foreground 40 black background 41 red background 42 green background 43 yellow background 44 blue background 45 magenta background 46 cyan background 47 white background ESC[=#;7h or Put screen in indicated mode where # is ESC[=h or 0 for 40 x 25 black & white ESC[=0h or 1 for 40 x 25 color ESC[?7h 2 for 80 x 25 b&w 3 for 80 x 25 color 4 for 320 x 200 color graphics 5 for 320 x 200 b & w graphics 6 for 640 x 200 b & w graphics 7 to wrap at end of line ESC[=#;7l or ESC[=l or Resets mode # set with above command ESC[=0l or ESC[?7l Keyboard Reassignments: ESC[#;#;...p Keyboard reassignment. The first ASCII or ESC["string"p code defines which code is to be or ESC[#;"string";#; changed. The remaining codes define #;"string";#p what it is to be changed to. E.g. Reassign the Q and q keys to the A and a keys (and vice versa). ESC [65;81p A becomes Q ESC [97;113p a becomes q ESC [81;65p Q becomes A ESC [113;97p q becomes a E.g. Reassign the F10 key to a DIR command. ESC [0;68;"dir";13p The 0;68 is the extended ASCII code for the F10 key and 13 is the ASCII code for a carriage return. Other function key codes F1=59,F2=60,F3=61,F4=62,F5=63 F6=64,F7=65,F8=66,F9=67,F10=68

It is available from at least three FTP sites I can think of, and if you cannot FTP, you can get it by requesting it from me. For info on how to get AAR, see the ASCII ART FAQ posted in the three ASCII art groups and in most *.answers groups, and by fingering my account. -- ::::::::: ... ... ... :/%%%%%%% _____ ::: ::: ::: / %%_ %% ______ //////// ::+ ::+ ::+ | %%:|__/ ___ .ooo ____ ////#### #######\ ...... +:+ +:+ +:+ | %%%%%%% ___ d88*88 /__ \ _am,//## /// ###| ###| :: :: :++ ++: :+: |___ %% ___ d88 88 ___) / ,gF ,@/## //// #######/ ii ii +++ +:+ +++ :/%%| %% ___ 8888888 / _/ ,8Ew*" ## ///// ###|###\ || || ++# ++# ++# / %%%%%%% ______88L 88 / /\ \ K , #### /// ###| ###/ || || #+# #+# #+# |_______/ _____ 88 88/_/ /_/ NbpP //////// ###| ##/ !!!!!! +###+#++#+#+# ::::::::: ###########
