NAME
dtterm - escape sequences recognized by dtterm and the
DtTerm widget
DESCRIPTION
Received Escape Sequences
The dtterm(1) utility and the DtTerm widget support the
following list of received escape sequences. Spaces have
been added for readability and are not part of the escape
sequence. The following indicate parameters: pi, p1,
label, file and text. Space indicates a required space,
hexadecimal code 0x20. A <control>-char indicates a control
code (such as <control>-G, which is hexadecimal code 0x07).
Esc indicates hexadecimal code 0x1b. Backslash indicates
hexadecimal code 0x5c. Literals are indicated as literal
and must be included exactly as specified. All references
to the dtterm(1) utility in this man page also apply to the
DtTerm widget.
<control>-G
(BEL) Bell. The terminal either issues an
audible bell, or flashes the text window
depending on the state of the visual bell flag.
<control>-H
(BS) Backspace. The cursor moves one cursor
position to the left. If reverse-wrap mode is
disabled and the cursor is at the left-most
column of the line when a backspace character is
received, the cursor remains at its current
position. If reverse-wrap mode is enabled and
the cursor is at the left-most column of the line
when a backspace character is received, the
cursor moves to the right-most column of the
previous line. If the cursor is also in the
top-most row, the cursor moves to the right-most
column of the bottom-most row.
<control>-I
(HT) Horizontal Tab. The cursor moves right to
the next tab stop. If there are no further tab
stops set to the right of the cursor, the cursor
moves to the right-most column of the current
line.
<control>-J
(LF) Line Feed or New Line. The cursor moves to
the same column of the next line. If the cursor
is in the bottom-most line of the scrolling
region, the scrolling region scrolls up one line.
Lines scrolled off the top of the scrolling
region are lost. Blank lines with no visible
Page 1 (printed 9/3/04)

same column of the previous line. If the cursor
is in the top-most line of the scrolling region,
the scrolling region is scrolled down one line.
The line scrolled off the bottom of the scrolling
region is lost. A blank line with no visible
character attributes is added at the top of the
scrolling region.
Esc P p1 ; p2 | p3 Esc Backslash
(DECUDK) User defined keys
