Actually, it can't be done *unless* the callers terminal is ANSI enabled.
Then you simply print the ANSI cursor-positioning sequence to the users
terminal and the cursor moves.
You can use some at-codes to make life easier on yourself, such as UP,
DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, GOTOXY, and so forth (go and look at your documentation
and check out file:///sbbs/docs/customization.html about halfway down for
details). Or you can emit the ANSI sequences directly. Google for
something like "ANSI control sequences" for more details.
