VT100 Batch Library

Overview

The VT100 Batch Library is a simple and efficient solution for incorporating VT100/ANSI escape codes into Windows batch files. It provides a collection of pre-defined variables representing common VT100 codes for text formatting, cursor control, and terminal color management. This library is ideal for enhancing the user interface of batch scripts.

List of Variables

Since there are many variables defined in this library, so instead of listing everything here in the read me file which needs to be updated every time in future what I can suggest to the user is that they can run the following command in that terminal to see all the available variables in the particular version of VT100 library.

call VT100.bat /?
