I've written an ANSI VDU driver for CP/M to translate BBC VDU sequences into
ANSI text/colour control sequences, primarily for running BBC BASIC on RunCPM:


It's still in development and testing at the moment, it should work on any display
system that understands ANSI esc[...char sequences.

Demo:

hi, good, while reading about BBC Basic, I found these VDU, originally it seemed weird, but these control codes are in fact binary so, nicer than ANSI on the Acorn machines, interesting, tnx;
