inverse mode and flash mode for text

I normally write programs on linux console.
I know how to write functions to clear screen, change text color or move cursor using \033 escape sequence.

But I dont know how to change letter text to inverse mode, flash mode (blinking) and to change them back to normal mode? (I guess it might use the same escape sequence \033 or curses.h but I dont know.)

Anyone know please tell me.

Thx in advance.

Code:

---

printf( "\033[5mhello \033[0mworld\n" );

---

`hello' is inverse OK, but `world' is not blinking.

Welcome back vVv!!!
You have been abandoning this board for a long time, where have you been?

More questions please.

On my console `\033[5m' makes non-blinking inverse.:confused:

By the way, I need 2 formats i.e.
1. non-blinking inverse
2. blinking inverse (normally I call it `flash mode')

Thanks,
