DESCRIPTION

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 sending 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 created 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::scs0 tag

::term::ansi::send::scs1 tag

Select Character Set.

Choose which character set is used for default (scs0) and alternate font (scs1). This does not change whether default or alternate font are used, just their definitions.

The legal tags, and their meanings, are:

0

Special Graphics

1

Alternate Character ROM Standard Character Set

::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

To this end it also knows which characters will look the same in both modes, to handle strings created outside of this package.
