Need ANSI 837 control

2.ANSI escape control codes for the Forth console

I was expecting that it would be a simple matter to send control
sequences (ANSI escape sequences for example) to the console which
would allow code to be written that can control the console in a
system independent way.  But I don't seem to be able to find any Forth
code for this.  When an app needs to put information on the screen in
other than a scrolling display, isn't there a simple, system
independent way to do that?

To be more clear, I am thinking that I can use
ESC emit [char] [ emit [char] 4 emit [char] ; emit [char] 6 emit
[char] H emit
to position the cursor at line 4 and column 6 on the screen.

The application will define fields on the screen for values and
labels. The user will be able to move the cursor using the arrow keys
and update some of the fields.  Then pressing the Enter key the data
will be sent to the target.  Results will be collected from the target
and displayed in the various fields.  This will be a bit like the
register and memory display of a software debugger.

The idea was to be that the app would be written in a system
independent way, but it is looking like this is not going to be
practical.

3.Harbour ANSI C sprintf() for ANSI SQL.

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
IMHO.-
I need to implement a sprintf () compatible ANSI C and ANSI SQL to generate HTML, mount SQL sentences of an effective way in
critical processes or simply mount messages of the application and debugging of a easy way.

Attach spd.c file, please check if it is Harbour compatible.
For my part is no objection to incorporate in the project if you consider it opportune.

Adjunto el fichero spd.c, por favor, chequear si es Harbour compatible.
Por mi parte no hay ning inconveniente en que se incorpore al proyecto si lo considers oportuno.

5.Need help understanding program control/flow.

Hi all! Newbie here.

Below is an example from Teach Yourself C in 21 Days. My apologies
if it is a bit long.

What I don't understand is how the "get_data" function can call the
"continue_function", and if NO is returned to "get_data", display_report
executes and the program ends? Basically I am having trouble understanding
the program flow within the "if" loop in the "main" function.

The "if" loops only initiates if cont=YES, so what happens if a function
in the loop(in this case get_data) gets cont=NO? Does this really mean
that if "something" within an "if" loop doesn't meet the condition of the  
loop,
the result is that the next statement below the "something" gets executed
and the the "if" loop is exited?

Hope I made myself clear.

Thanks in advance!
