A '''line starve''' describes the feeding of paper in a [[line printer]] back one line or moving the [[Cursor_(computers)#Text_cursor|cursor]] on a [[character terminal]] up one line. It is the opposite of a [[line feed]]. Most printers do not support this operation. This term is also used to describe the [[control character]] or [[escape sequence]] which causes this action. This is not a standard [[ASCII]] character, but it is defined as the [[ISO 6429]] and [[Unicode]] "Reverse Line Feed" [[C1 control code]] (U+008D).
