Termcap looks interesting, but I can not find anything about the control characters I would like to use. I am trying to find a library that’d give me the right escape sequence - or a function - to do certain things. Such as - Deleting everything from the left/right of the curser - Erasing a whole line, setting the cursor to the beginning of the line - Starting / ending a color sequence i know that ncurses can do the color part, but I couldn’t find any way to make it print soemthing like "\x1b[1K“ for me. I know, that on some terminals, the \x expects an octal value rather than a hexadecimal value. (i.e. \x033 vs. \x1b). So the library I am looking for just needs to give me the right sequence to use o.o Do you know any? Am Mo.

How about using one of the current widely used Windows ports of termcap or ncurses (cygwin, MinGW, ....)
