title: Cursor position: can you determine screen position for print command in Python 3.4 in a Windows 7 environment?
body: <p>I'm quite new to programming but enjoying my first steps in Python 3.4.3</p>
  
  <p>I am trying fix a certain screen/print position - is that possible? I believe in Unix you can use tput is there something similar for Python in Windows environment?</p>
  
  <p>In other words: is there a command that determines (x, y) coordinates for printing a variable? I.e. something like: 4 lines down, 5 positions to the right?</p>
  
  <p>Reason for asking: I want a count down clock while not clearing the whole screen with <code>os.system('cls')</code></p>
