Control-H, the Backspace character, is actually supposed to be a +format effector, so you can do this. But many systems use it in a +nonstandard fashion, as an editor function, deleting the character to the +left of the cursor and moving the cursor left. When Control-H is assumed to +be an editor function, you cannot predict whether its use will create an +overstrike unless you also know whether the output device is in an "insert +mode" or an "overwrite mode". When Control-H is used as a format effector, +its effect can always be predicted. The familiar characters carriage +return, linefeed, formfeed, etc., are defined as format effectors. + +\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ +/ + +ANSI X3.64 Mode-Changing Parameters for use with the + Select Mode (SM) and Reset Mode (RM) functions + + Parameter Mode Mode Function + Characters Mnemonic + column/ graphic + row repres. +---------------------------------------------------------------------------- +3/0 0 an error condition +3/1 1 GATM guarded-area transfer mode +3/2 2 KAM keyboard action mode +3/3 3 CRM control representation mode +3/4 4 IRM insertion/replacement mode +3/5 5 SRTM status-reporting transfer mode +3/6 6 ERM erasure mode +3/7 7 VEM vertical editing mode +3/8 8 reserved for future standardization +3/9 9 reserved for future standardization +3/10 : reserved separator for parameters +3/11 ; Standard separator for parameters +3/12 < reserved for private (experimental) use +3/13 = reserved for private (experimental) use +3/14 > reserved for private (experimental) use +3/15 ? reserved for private (experimental) use +3/1 3/0 10 HEM horizontal editing mode +3/1 3/1 11 PUM positioning unit mode +3/1 3/2 12 SRM send/receive mode +3/1 3/3 13 FEAM format effector action mode +3/1 3/4 14 FETM format effector transfer mode +3/1 3/5 15 MATM multiple area transfer mode +3/1 3/6 16 TTM transfer termination mode +3/1 3/7 17 SATM selected area transfer mode +3/1 3/8 18 TSM tabulation stop mode +3/1 3/9 19 EBM editing boundary mode +3/1 3/10 1: reserved separator for parameters +3/1 3/11 1; Standard separator for parameters +3/1 3/12 1< error condition--unspecified recovery +3/1 3/13 1= error condition--unspecified recovery +3/1 3/14 1> error condition--unspecified recovery +3/1 3/15 1? error condition--unspecified recovery +3/2 3/0 20 LNM linefeed/newline mode (not in ISO 6429) +3/2 3/1 21 + . . + . . reserved for future standardization + . . +3/9 3/9 99 + +3/12 3/0 <0 + . . + . . reserved for private (experimental) use + . . +3/15 3/15 ?? + +\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ +/ + +NOTES ON THE DEC VT100 IMPLEMENTATION + +In the case of the popular DEC VT100 video-terminal implementation, +the only mode that may be altered is the linefeed/newline (LNM) mode. +Other modes are considered permanently set, reset, or not applicable +as follows: + + Set: ERM + Reset: CRM, EBM, FEAM, FETM, IRM, KAM, PUM, SRTM, TSM + N/A: GATM, HEM, MATM, SATM, TTM, VEM + +Control sequences implemented in the VT100 are as follows: + + CPR, CUB, CUD, CUF, CUP, CUU, DA, DSR, ED, EL, HTS, HVP, IND, + LNM, NEL, RI, RIS, RM, SGR, SM, TBC + +plus several private DEC commands. + +Erasing parts of the display (EL and ED) in the VT100 is performed thus: + + Erase from cursor to end of line Esc [ 0 K or Esc [ K + Erase from beginning of line to cursor Esc [ 1 K + Erase line containing cursor Esc [ 2 K + Erase from cursor to end of screen Esc [ 0 J or Esc [ J + Erase from beginning of screen to cursor Esc [ 1 J + Erase entire screen Esc [ 2 J + +The VT100 responds to receiving the DA (Device Attributes) control + + Esc [ c (or Esc [ 0 c) + +by transmitting the sequence + + Esc [ ? l ; Ps c + +where Ps is a character that describes installed options. + +The VT100's cursor location can be read with the DSR (Device Status +Report) control + + Esc [ 6 n + +The VT100 reports by transmitting the CPR sequence + + Esc [ Pl ; Pc R + +where Pl is the line number and Pc is the column number (in decimal). + +\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ +/ + +The complete document describing the standard, "ANSI X3.64-1979: +Additional Controls for Use with the American National Standard +Code for Information Interchange," can be ordered for $13.50 (plus +$4 postage) from + + Standards Sales Department + American National Standards Institute + 1430 Broadway + New York, NY 10018 + 212/354-3300 + +It's best to read the full standard before using it.
