I have a text editor which is invoked in a session from the Windows 10 command prompt.
ssh user@linuxhost
If I invoke this command doit.sh
echo "echo X;^[[999;999H^[[6n"
then these characters are sent to the screen in accordance with the vt100 specification (^[ signifies the ESC character with decimal code 27).
echo X;
:~$ ;75R
(The bell sounds)
After experimenting I think that bash is sounding the bell and the prefix of the response is lost.
I am not asking about this behaviour but I am asking how my text editor can by some device send ^[[999;999H^[[6n and capture the response ESC[{row};{col}R.
