As the other poster mentioned, I'm not aware of any terminal that allows these sequences these days.

This wasn't an uncommon thing back in the 90s with DOS ANSI art. I'm not sure if the original ANSI.SYS included with DOS 5/6 but there was a period of time where people remapped things like "echo y|format c:" using ANSI that only required one to "type somefile.ans/txt". The "fix" was to use an accelerated ANSI driver that dropped key-remapping.
