Console output - way to let caret jump to columns and rows

Question

Is it possible to output such a escape code so that the caret in console moves to proper absolute location? I've seen something similar on unix console. Is this even possible on the basic and simple Windows console? Thanks

Answer 1

Don't use an escape code, use SetConsoleCursorPosition

COORD C = { 3, 3 };
SetConsoleCursorPosition(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE), C);
