No. Output is almost same even if setting TERM=dumb.
See attached log.
Consider what should be the output of pseudo console if console
application like below is executed.
#include <windows.h>
int main()
{
HANDLE h = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
COORD p = {20, 10};
DWORD n;
SetConsoleCursorPosition(h, p);
SetConsoleTextAttribute(h, FOREGROUND_RED);
WriteConsole(h, "R", 1, &n, 0);
SetConsoleTextAttribute(h, FOREGROUND_GREEN);
WriteConsole(h, "G", 1, &n, 0);
SetConsoleTextAttribute(h, FOREGROUND_BLUE);
WriteConsole(h, "B", 1, &n, 0);
SetConsoleTextAttribute(h, FOREGROUND_RED|FOREGROUND_GREEN|FOREGROUND_BLUE);
WriteConsole(h, "W", 1, &n, 0);
WriteConsole(h, "\r\n", 2, &n, 0);
return 0;
}
Setting cursor posision and text color cannot be realized
without ANSI escape sequences.
Indeed, the output of the pseudo console by the program above is:
^[[?25l^[[11;21H^[[?25h^[[?25l^[[31mR^[[32mG^[[34mB^[[mW^M
^[[?25h
