I know this topic was disucssed in the 90's on the forum and is an old
question, but. I am trying to control the display row,col for terminal
output of my ADA 95 simple program. I have tried several ways but to
no avail:

-- keep out put of a loop at line 20 column 20

put (ASCII.ESC & "[" & "20" & ";" & "20" & "H")  ;

put (ASCII.ESC&"[20;20H")  ;
put (ada.Characters.latin_1.ESC&"20"&";"&"20H");

put (Character'val (91) & "20;20H" );

I get the literal out put on the screen " <-20;20H " but not keeping
the output on line 20, col 20.

I do get put(ascii.bel); to ring the bell OK.



Thanks
