I know how to make the last line of a terminal app refresh itself

  • 0

I know how to make the last line of a terminal app refresh itself by clearing \r carriage return at the line.

How can I do this with more lines than just the last? (how do programs like vi do it?)

EDIT
Without externals such like ncurses, tput, etc
