Is it really? Is it quicker to write
write(sprintf("\033[%d;%dH", x, y)))
(or whatever it is) than
tgoto(tgetstr("cm"), x, y)

Because it's quicker to make something specific. If the choice is that someone writes a vt100 library or no library at all, I prefer the vt100 variant. But of course it's not *much* more work using Stdio.Terminfo. :)
