I am working on a Javscript project with the following code...
process.stdout.write('\033c');
The IJ tooltip says
Octal escape sequences are not allowed
So I am pretty sure I just need to convert the \033c to UTF-8 but since it is kind of a weird char I am not sure I am understanding things properly.
I tried this...
process.stdout.write("\\033c");
per this but it still has the same issue
This has nothing to with UTF-8. \033c is supposed to be two characters: \033 (the ESC control character, code point U+001B) and c (a regular lower-case c).
The error says that octal escape sequences are not allowed, so let's use hex instead. Octal 33 converted to hexadecimal is 1B, so you can use \x1b*. In combination with the c you get \x1bc.
For more information, see the section about escape sequences on MDN.
*: You could also use \u001b instead of \x1b but for characters in the range of U+0000 to U+00FF it doesn't matter.
