- **************************************
- NOTE: Because this program is written
- for the Commodore 128, it cannot be
- run like other programs on LOADSTAR.
- To run this program, press your 128's
- RESET button. This will display a
- menu of all C-128 programs on this
- issue. Choose the program you want to
- run from this menu.
- **************************************
-
-
- The Commodore 128's ESCAPE key is
-
- used with other keys to generate
-
- escape sequences for screen editing
-
- chores like setting up windows,
-
- clearing portions of the screen, or
-
- moving the cursor.
-
-
- These effects can be accessed from
-
- the keyboard or by a program. Ian
-
- Adam's program demonstrates how a
-
- program can use escape sequences to
-
- clear the screen in different ways.
-
-
- Each effect is accomplished by a
-
- single small routine (typically three
-
- lines long) that you could include in
-
- your own programs.
-

- To learn more about 128 escape
-
- sequences, consult the Commodore
-
- magazine article cited above.
