Hi Alfredo,
Try using : INPUT dummyvar;prompt="string";readcnt=0

Ok, to be explicit
: INPUT X;PROMPT=chr(27)+"H";READCNT=0

Objet :     Echo question


Hello, Gurus,

I do this:

echo <esc>H

to do a "home up".


This works fine, except that the echo command does an automatic
LF CR after it sends the "home" escape sequence to the terminal
[emulator].  The net result is that, instead of getting the cursor
at "home", I get the cursor "one line below home".

Any tricks for asking echo to NOT issue the LF CR?  Alternatively,
is there another way to specify "home" (not programmatically but
from the MPE/iX command interpreter)?

Thanks,

  _______________
