You might be thinking of ASCII?

From the wiki: "The phrase ANSI character set has no well-defined meaning and has been used to refer to the following, among other things"

So if you are thinking of CP-437 or Windows-1252 I suppose that's fair, but generally in the context of terminal apps "ANSI" without qualification refers to the escape sequences.

Now I am curious though, did ANSI the standards body have any official character encoding standards?
