Hi,

Is it possible to move the DOS cursor around the screen in DOS batch (.bat) files?

All I can find is info about $e[1a and ESC[1a that don't seem to work.

What you posted is an Escape Sequence to be processed by the legacy DOS ANSI.sys Driver.
As far as I know therte is no analog software stuff under Windows 2K/XP environments that are NT-kernel based.
