hello, i am working on a 8051 controller..i have to display a certain message on a particular location on the terminal...is there any function through which i can set the cursor position..??or any other method for doing this??
If it's not working, then you must be!
Have you actually spent any time looking at examples?
This stuff was well-established 20 years ago - it's not like you're breaking any new ground!
well i tried sending a sequence of {0x1b,'[',6,'C'} to the hyper terminal...but the message doesnt get displayed at the 6th location from start...am i doing anything wrong here??
Now you have to decide. A console window (as in the command-line window available for test-based command-line tools) or the hyperterminal?
The hyperterminal is dumb. But not dumb enough that it only supports printing characters one one line and switching to next text line. It have ANSI, VT52, VT100, ...
That is terminal emulations, i.e. emulations of smart consoles that allows lots of things to be done by just decoding the character stream that is received.
Haven't Google given you enough information already?
Console windows in Windows versions do not support ANSI escape sequences at all..
a serial hyperterminal..
Sorry, who is actually supposed to be doing this work...?

"i was referring to a PC serial hyper terminal"
Do you think it makes any difference to the PC whether the commands come from an 8051, or anything else...?
What Terminal?

This is done with escape sequences:
