I believe that would be OS dependent.

It varies from OS to OS. What OS/compiler are you using?

In the good old days, the use of ANSI.sys gave a standard set of escape sequences that were device independant (e.g. <ESC>[2J would clean the screen).

Not sure if there are valid ANSI.sys files for the console environments in all of the latest windows. If they do in fact still exist, that is the way I would go.

Hope this helps...
