I understand what you mean. setterm outputs an escape code like:
\033[9;0]
only when the TERM is "con" or "linux".
The parameter 9 is for "set blanking interval".
This escape sequence is used by setterm_command() in the Linux kernel's
linux/drivers/char/console.c which does a poke_blanked_console().
I wonder if there is a tool to directly call those kernel functions?
