Not sure <I>why</I> you would want to do this, but anyway...
You could probably get clever with Ansi escape codes to move
the cursor around for you:
echo "\033[<STRONG>R</STRONG>;<STRONG>C</STRONG>H"
Puts the cursor at row <STRONG>R</STRONG> and column <STRONG>C</STRONG>

move(3XCURSES) X/Open Curses Library Functions move(3XCURSES)
NAME
move, wmove - move cursor in window
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -I /usr/xpg4/include -L /usr/xpg4/lib
-R /usr/xpg4/lib -lcurses [ library... ]
c89 [ flag... ] file... -lcurses [ library... ]
#include <curses.h>
int move(int y, int x);
int wmove(WINDOW *win, int y, int x);
PARAMETERS
y Is the y (row) coordinate of the position of the cursor in the window.
x Is the x (column) coordinate of the position of the cursor in the window.
win Is a pointer to the window in which the cursor is to be written.
DESCRIPTION
The move() function moves the logical cursor (for stdscr) to the position specified by y (row) and x (column), where the upper left corner
of the window is row 0, column 0. The wmove() function performs the same action, but moves the cursor in the window specified by win. The
physical cursor will not move until after a call to refresh(3XCURSES) or doupdate(3XCURSES).
RETURN VALUES
On success, these functions return OK. Otherwise, they return ERR.
ERRORS
None.
