5.3.2 Control Sequence Recognized in ANSI Mode
5.3.2. 1 General
This section describes
each
control
sequence recognized
by
the
VISUAL
100 in ANSI mode.
Many
of
the
control
sequences described in this section
conform
to
the
basic
format,
as
specified
by
the
ANS I
X3.64
standard.
Lead in sequence
as
specified
by
the
ANSI Standard.
Sometimes referred
to

the Control
Sequence Introducer.
ESC
[
Ps/Pn
T
Ps
refers
to
a selective
parameter,
Pn
refers
to
a numeric parameter. Some
sequences
use
selective
parameters and some
use
numeric parameters,
but
the
same
control
sequence
never uses both.
If
the
Ps
or
Pn
value
is
not
specified
it
assumes
a
default
value.
F
Termination
character
of
sequence specifying
the
function
to
be
performed. This
character varies
with
each
function.
The
following
examples demonstrate the
use
of
all three elements
of
the
control
sequence
as
specified
by
the ANS I
X3.64
standard.
Spaces
are
used
for
clarity
only
are
not
part
of
the
sequence.
