Need ansi.sys manual

Does anyone know of any manual or book that covers the strings
ANSI.SYS responds to under DOS 4.0?  Ideally it would be about
the PCDOS version since that has the /L option which Microsoft
says doesn't exist under MSDOS.  I'm not picky though,  I'll 
take any recommendation about a book or manual that covers ANSI.SYS.

One book that I have used for a few years is the MS-DOS Power User's Guide
by Jonathan Kamin (pub: SYBEX).  All of Appendix B is devoted to the ANSI
escape sequences and how to use them.  Obviously, the version that I have
predates DOS 4.0 but there might be a newer edition of the book out by now.
