Question: feature parity of escape codes in console and in xterm #289

Hi!

The documentation here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/console-virtual-terminal-sequences says that escape codes are based on vt100 and xterm.

I wonder if there is a comparison of xterm Vs console with respect to these codes - which codes are the same, which codes are not implemented, which codes behave differently in some corner cases, and so on and so for.

Or at least a confirmation of a general idea that "if it works in xterm, it should work in console" would be great, too.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!
