I haven`t used those codes myself, but I think you could do
something like @GOTOXY:1,5@ . But you say it`s not working?
Also, I remember TheDraw providing cursor movement via animation.
Years ago I used to make some ANSIs for my BBS with a small cursor
movement to place the cursor at a certain location. I know that works for
ANSI, though I`m not certain if that would work if the ANSI is converted
to Synchronet attribute codes.
