Not as far as I can tell from the notes I took. The sequence in question is CSI firstline ; lastline r (firstline defaults to 1, lastline defaults to the last line on the screen), and it is not described in the X3.64 notes I have. I believe it's a DECism. (Actually, I think the VT100 is 7bit; if so, it has to be the ESC [ 7-bit form, it can't be the 8-bit CSI C1 character.) I really should have thought of it myself, just the same. > which define a "window": Only character cells within that window can > be changed and the cursor cannot be moved outside. I don't think that's quite how it works. What indications I find indicate that the cursor can be moved outside the scrolling region if relative origin mode is clear; this is parameter ?6 to the CSI ... h and CSI ... l sequences. /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [EMAIL PROTECTED] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
