Hi
I just discovered \r and \t

cat(LETTERS, "\r", letters, "\n")

and
\a as alert
\b as backspace
\f as form-feed
\n as newline
\r as carriage-return
\t as tab
\v as vertical-tab
are there more of these escape sequences?
Especially, Can I position the cursor at a specific column? I would like
to do this to show progress in an analysis done with mclapply() on
multiple cores and, preferably, display each core (7) at a fixed
position in a line.
How these are interpreted is a matter for the terminal/console. Some
terminals have escape sequences to do that, but most consoles do not.
Thanks,
Rainer
