1) is there another way to move the cursor besides the escape sequences in win32 console applications?
2) i want to move my cursor up, or to be precise - backward. example:
my code generates this on the screen (\n meaning new line):
\n
HEY, DONT ERASE ME.
\n
and my erase() function sould erase all cappital Es and replace them with a *.
all i need to know is how to get up and backward without erasing anything.
IMPORTANT : the original is not to be reprinted on the screen, everything is to remain, with only the Es substituted.
i.e. cout <<"\b" is backspace, that erases
and i tried "\v", vertical tab, but i got smth. strange.
Please help.
