The console_codes page does not seem to include SD/SU \e[1S/\e[1T. I however have used IL/DL \e[1L/\e[1M which insert/remove lines at the cursor. e.g. \e[1;1H\e[5L puts 5 blank lines at the top of screen scrolling everything down and \e[1;1H\e[2M deletes the top two lines scrolling everything up. In a quick test with "echo -e" seems to work on framebuffer console, screen and xterm
Personally, I use screen instead of either tmux or minicom I use it for the multiple windows and less insane serial port handling. With minicom I spent a bit of each setup fixing it so it stopped trying so hard to help me and would just connect me to the serial port... If I needed some weird setting with screen I would just use stty </dev/ttyUSB1 cs7 9600 or whatever in a second window. One reason for screen etc. is that even now we have embedded boards that can't seem to have their serial ports work correctly above 9600 and on those occasions I need to run a serial port remotely via modem it has been getting slower. Even high speed modems tend to max out around 24Kbps which seems to be dropping recently, I suspect the switching to packet switched digital backhaul with modern codecs breaks the assumptions modems were built with so they run slower.
