DESCRIPTION
This package provides commands to send ANSI terminal control sequences
to a terminal. All commands come in two variants, one for sending to
any channel, the other for sending to stdout.
The commands are defined using the control sequences provided by the
package term::ansi::code::ctrl. They have the same arguments as the
commands they are based on, with the exception of the variant for send-
ing to any channel. Their first argument is always a channel handle,
then followed by the original arguments. Below we will list only the
variant sending to stdout.
::term::ansi::send::import ?ns? ...
Imports the commands of this package into the namespace ns. If
not specified it defaults to send. Note that this default is a
relative namespace name, i.e. the actual namespace will be cre-
ated under the current namespace.
By default all commands will be imported, this can however be
restricted to specific commands, by listing them after the
namespace to import them into.
::term::ansi::send::eeol
Erase (to) End Of Line.
::term::ansi::send::esol
Erase (to) Start Of Line.
::term::ansi::send::el
Erase (current) Line.
::term::ansi::send::ed
Erase Down (to bottom).

::term::ansi::send::su
Scroll Up.
::term::ansi::send::ch

is no unlimited stack. Saving before restoring will overwrite
the saved data.
::term::ansi::send::rc
Restore Cursor (Unsave).
::term::ansi::send::sca

::term::ansi::send::rca

Disable Line Wrap.
::term::ansi::send::eg
Enter Graphics Mode.
::term::ansi::send::lg
Exit Graphics Mode.
::term::ansi::send::scs0 tag
::term::ansi::send::scs1 tag
Select Character Set.
Choose which character set is used for default (scs0) and alter-
nate font (scs1). This does not change whether default or
alternate font are used, just their definitions.
The legal tags, and their meanings, are:
A United Kingdom Set
B ASCII Set
0 Special Graphics
1 Alternate Character ROM Standard Character Set
2 Alternate Character ROM Special Graphics
::term::ansi::send::sda arg...
Set Display Attributes. The arguments are the code sequences for
the possible attributes, as provided by the package
term::ansi::code::attr. For convenience this package also pro-
vides additional commands each setting a single specific
attribute.
::term::ansi::send::sda_fgblack

Set text color to Blue.
::term::ansi::send::sda_fgmagenta
Set text color to Magenta.
::term::ansi::send::sda_fgcyan
Set text color to Cyan.
::term::ansi::send::sda_fgwhite
Set text color to White.
::term::ansi::send::sda_fgdefault
Set default text color (Black).
::term::ansi::send::sda_bgblack
Set background to Black.
::term::ansi::send::sda_bgred
Set background to Red.
::term::ansi::send::sda_bggreen

::term::ansi::send::fcp row col
Force Cursor Position (aka Go To).
::term::ansi::send::cu ?n?
Cursor Up. n defaults to 1.
::term::ansi::send::cd ?n?
Cursor Down. n defaults to 1.
::term::ansi::send::cf ?n?
Cursor Forward. n defaults to 1.
::term::ansi::send::cb ?n?
Cursor Backward. n defaults to 1.
::term::ansi::send::ss ?s e?
Scroll Screen (entire display, or between rows start end, inclu-
sive).
::term::ansi::send::skd code str
Set Key Definition.
::term::ansi::send::title str
Set the terminal title.
::term::ansi::send::gron
Switch to character/box graphics. I.e. switch to the alternate
font.
::term::ansi::send::groff
Switch to regular characters. I.e. switch to the default font.
::term::ansi::send::tlc
Character graphics, Top Left Corner.
::term::ansi::send::trc
Character graphics, Top Right Corner.
::term::ansi::send::brc
Character graphics, Bottom Right Corner.
::term::ansi::send::blc

::term::ansi::send::groptim str
Optimize character graphics. The generator commands above create
way to many superfluous commands shifting into and out of the
graphics mode. This command removes all shifts which are not
needed. To this end it also knows which characters will look the
same in both modes, to handle strings created outside of this
package.
::term::ansi::send::clear
Clear screen. In essence a sequence of CursorHome + EraseDown.
::term::ansi::send::init
Initialize default and alternate fonts to ASCII and box graph-
ics.
::term::ansi::send::showat row col text
Show the block of text at the specified location.
