A couple days ago I asked some VT100 questions, and got these answers (thanks folks) : > My understanding is that the code ESC [n1;n2r sets the scrolling region to > lines n1 through n2 inclusive, but there are two things I do not know: > > 1) Does ESC [;22r mean "scroll lines 0 through 22" or does it mean "Set the > bottom scrolling line to 22, leave the top line as it is set already" ? It means line 1-22. > 2) Should a clear screen code clear the scrolling region only, or the > entire > screen? How about a clear to end of screen? Whole screen. > One more vt100 question: Can anyone tell me what an ESC \ sequence is > supposed to do? It is a VT52 "Exit HOLD SCREEN mode". I don't know what a HOLD SCREEN mode is, but that's apparently what the coe is. Thanks again to those helpful folks who answered my questions.
