Ansi.sys What is an ANSI
escape sequence?
An
ANSI
escape
sequence
is a series
of
characters
(beginning
with
an escape
character
or
keystroke)
that
you
can
use
to
define func-
tions for
MS-DOS_
Specifically,
you
can change graphiCS functions
and
affect
the
movement
of
the
cursor.
This appendix explains
the
ANSI
escape sequences for
MS-DOS.

• Pn represents the numeric parameter, a decimal

ASCII digits.
• Ps represents the selective parameter, a decimal
number
that

use
to
select a subfunction. You may specify
more
than
one
subfunction by separating
the
parameters
with
semicolons_
• PI represents
the
line parameter, a decimal
number
that
you
specify
with
