I'm using a VT220 emulator (Reflections) and after filling the screen with characters and doing ^[5;15r followed by ^[2J, the whole screen is cleared. What few notes I did find about the cs parameter also mentioned that it is impossible to predict where the cursor will be after setting the scroll region. ---------- From: Sheik Sent: Thursday, February 27, 1997 10:22 PM To: Gary Clark Cc: gnu-win32 Subject: RE: Console escape char handling.

Does this also affect things like clearing the screen? say I have a [5;15r and then clear screen. would the full screen be erased, or just that region from 5-15? (I am adding "r" into the fhandler.cc file now, and I just need to know what "r" affects, and if it just defines the current scroll region.) Thanks Scott Kilau Gary A.
