Maybe look at specific terminal specs? Things like vt100 were actual devices, not mere conventions! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/VT100 https://en.m.wikipedia

Though, I kinda suspect “xterm” is the defacto modern standard.
- duskwuff 3y agoEven the VT100 didn't have a "spec" per se. The user manual [1] is a helpful reference, but is rather vague on the details. (In particular, some important details of how and when line wrapping occurs are not described in the manual.) [1]: https://vt100.net/docs/vt100-ug/ https://vt100.net/docs/vt100-ug/
- hnlmorg 3y agoThat’s what I have been doing. But terminal specs only cover supported escape sequences on that terminal and seldom cover how that sequence behaves in any detail.
