What I showed you was the very simplest way of doing things. If you
want to move the cursor around, I would recommend the 'curses'
library:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/curses.html
https://docs.python.org/3/howto/curses.html
There are other ways, too; with more info on what you're trying to
accomplish, we could better advise. It might be that a GUI will serve
you well, particularly if you have several pieces of information that
you want to update.
