Scrolling in Perl

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I need to make a full screen scroller and I already have the text reader ready, but I need to be able to print the line above *AND* move back down using numerical inputs. Does any monk have any idea about something of this sort? Is there anything like a gotoxy(x,y) function for Unix Perl?

Perfect! Just what I needed. I've used Curses in C so it should no be such a migration. Thnx -- The Stray Walrus	[reply]
