Add "Blink" Attribute to Console Display

[MikeCopeland]

I've written a library of Console functions (e.g. Write, GoToXY, ClrScr, etc.) that works for me. It displays colors, but I wish to add "Blink" to my functionality. For example, one of the (many) #defines I use is 0x00fe. I'd like to know what bit mask I should add to this value to achieve "blinking".
BTW, I googled "blink attribute C/C++", and although I got lots of hits, nothing I've tried works... Please advise. TIA

Do you have ansi.sys loaded? If you do, try esc [5m for slow blink or esc [6m for fast blink.
