... sequences...There are many other popular terminal control sequence sets such as ADM3A, Televideo 950, IBM 3101. I have no love for the ANSI/VT/ECMA48 mish-mash as well. The best of them all, in my opinion (and the opinions of countless thousands of systems integrators) is the WYSE 60 control ... |

... Apparently, ANSI function keys != VT-100 function keys. ANSI/VT extended key sequences are a bit of a convoluted mess Just for clarification, ECMA-48, the ancestor of the ANSI standard, was a mish-mash of the DEC VT-52’s sequences and the older European ECM-6 standard that was developed in ... |

... HCS over AHC or HC. Or maybe I'm missing something? The 74HCS family is targeted at noisy environments, such as machine controllers or automotive ECMs. Take out the Schmitt inputs and you have the 74HC family—essentially the same characteristics and performance. If you are intent on building a ... |

So instead I had to go to the ECMA CD-ROM specs, pull the EFM bit patterns out of that, and generate a raw truth table to dump into a proper logic minimiser. This included generating ... |

Where the VT-100/ANSI/ECMA48 method is a pain is in it using ASCII numerals that have to be internally converted to binary to be usable, as well as the general "wordiness" ... |

It’s a classic, design-by-committee mess and due to the general structure of the commands, e.g., <ESC> [<v>;<h>H to plot the cursor ... |
