I think it *is* everything for the Sun console; that stuff is all
implemented in the monitor PROM, which the "console driver" calls when it
wants to output stuff to the console.

For tty subwindows (e.g., "shelltool") there are more escape sequences,
which are documented in the SunView Programmer's Guide.
