Thank you.
This program will allow me to create an ANSII terminal on a graphics
display (LCD or VGA) on an ESP-32.
I will be connected a real live terminal (or terminal emulator) via the
serial port to the ESP-32 and I need the ESP-32 to send ANSI codes to
the terminal to create windows.
Txwindows is a superset of what i am looking for.

Since it's and ESP32 you have, you might look into

"FabGL is mainly a Graphics Library for ESP32. It implements several
display drivers (for direct VGA output and for I2C and SPI LCD drivers).
FabGL can also get input from a PS/2 Keyboard and a Mouse. ULP core
handles PS/2 ports communications, leaving main CPU cores free to
perform other tasks.
FabGL also implements: an Audio Engine, a Graphical User Interface
(GUI), a Game Engine and an ANSI/VT Terminal.
This library works with ESP32 revision 1 and upper."
The VT132 emulator board from TheHighNibble uses the FabGL package for
it's VT emulator. It works very well.
