Are the escape sequences imported by ansicon nativly supported by Linux?

217 Views Asked by At

For my final C project, we need to use Visual Studio and install something called Ansicon on our windows machine in order to get escape sequences to be able to program a game.

Unfortunately, I don't have Visual Studio at home, or Windows, so I would need to use a school computer to do this. I was reading that Ansicon should just install the escape characters that *NIX systems already support.

Will I be able to test my game without the functions that Ansicon provides?

After testing the following code

printf( "\033[2;1H");
printf( "\033[K"); 

It turns out that this is correct, and that my *NIX system does support escape characters out of the box.
