The escape sequence ESC [ Pt ; Pb r sets the top and bottom margins on a VT100. Does anyone know if this sequence also forces the cursor to the upper left corner of the screen in the process of setting the margins? It acts like that is what's happening, but I'd like to hear from someone who might be more sure of it than I am <g>. I've got both an ANSI X3.41 writeup and a VT240 manual to work with, but neither one is very much help. Thanks. Robert

Robert, Yes, the <ESC>[Pt;Pbr sequence will move the cursor to the 1,1 screen position. -jack-

Jack, Thanks for the confirmation. I'm really surprised that my VT240 manual doesn't mention it, but that's the only behavior that made any sense to me. Thanks again. Robert
