# Escape Sequences
# ESCAPE SEQUENCES
Contrary to popular belief, there's no issue in using raw escape sequences. Using `tput` just abstracts the same ANSI escape sequences. What's worse is that `tput` isn't actually portable, there are a number of different `tput` variants on different Operating Systems each with different commands (*try and run `tput setaf 3` on a FreeBSD system*). The easiest solution ends up being raw ANSI sequences.
Contrary to popular belief, there is no issue in utilizing raw escape sequences. Using `tput` abstracts the same ANSI sequences as if printed manually. Worse still, `tput` is not actually portable. There are a number of `tput` variants each with different commands and syntaxes (*try `tput setaf 3` on a FreeBSD system*). Raw sequences are fine.
