ANSIPOS IEXP1,IEXP2
Function
If ANSI is available, position the cursor in column IEXP1 row IEXP2
Legal ranges: 1 <= IEXP1 <= 80
1 <= IEXP2 <= 23 (Because of the status lines)
(1,1) is the top left corner of the screen
Syntax
ANSIPOS xpos, ypos
xpos - An integer expression with the screen column (x position)
in which to place the cursor. Valid columns are 1 through 80.
ypos - An integer expression with the screen row (y position) on
which to place the cursor. Valid rows are 1 through 23.
Remarks
This statement will position the cursor to the specified (X,Y)
coordinate on the screen but only if the current caller has ANSI
support. If you are writing a program that will require ANSI
positioning, check the value of the ANSION() function. If ANSI is
not available, this statement will be ignored.
Examples

ANSIPOS 1,1
PRINTLN "This starts at (1,1)"
ANSIPOS 3,3
PRINTLN "This starts at (3,3)"
ANSIPOS 2,2
