As described in the link I previously linked, in order for the new Windows 10 Console to recognize ANSI escape sequences you must first enable the virtual terminal mode by first calling (from within your Ada program) the "SetConsoleMode" API and setting the "ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSING" flag.   You can also look at the following link and write your own VT100 emulator...

I did something more elaborate, but it works fine.

Cheers
