That should work (and it appears from your later post that it did). You could
look at pkg PragmARC.ANSI_TTY_Control
https://github.com/jrcarter/PragmARC
It doesn't do colors, since at the time it was developed (c. 1990) colors
weren't very portable, and this is not used much these days, but it should serve
as a guide for how to do it.
