It seems not. I'm using a VT220 emulator (Reflections) and after filling
the screen with characters and doing ^[5;15r followed by ^[2J, the whole
screen is cleared.
What few notes I did find about the cs parameter also mentioned that it
is impossible to predict where the cursor will be after setting the
scroll region.

Does this also affect things like clearing the screen? say I have a
[5;15r and then clear screen. would the full screen be erased, or just
that region from 5-15? (I am adding "r" into the fhandler.cc file now,
and I just need to know what "r" affects, and if it just defines the
current scroll region.)
Thanks
