Check out Appendix B in the 'white' manual. Excerpts below: ESC A -- cursor up ESC B -- cursor down ESC C -- cursor right etcetera The 'ESC' is 01bh and 'A' is 041h, etc. fragment example -- rem cursor up one line print chr$(27),"A" rem chr$(27) = ESC; "A" = letter 'A' Now, if only I could determine how to use the related escape code to determine whether a Z-100 has color video.....
