The sequence you have to fill in depends on the terminal you are using. All the capabilities of all terminals known to the system are in the termcap/terminfo database. Read the manpage of terminfo/termcap about how to retrieve the information necessary, then use this procedure to get the correct (escape-)sequences, then fill these in into the variable definitions. Then, the procedure described above will work.
I cannot tell you more details, because i do not know which terminal you are using and every terminal has its own sequences. You will have to find out your terminal by issuing
and searching for whatever the system displays as answer in the terminfo or termcap database.

HISTORY
The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool. It was prompted
by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.
SEE ALSO shtool(1), sed(1).
