I have used cputs, cprintf etc., in text windows of 135x43 on an EGA and 135x50
on a VGA with no problems.  I am not sure why you claim gettextinfo() doesn't 
work.  I have used it to get the info for the windows I mentioned above.  If it
wasn't working that is news to me.

I don't know if you are talking about standard DOS i/o routines or Borland's
standard i/o routines in paragraph two.  I also don't know what a nnansi.sys
is.  I can guess that nnansi.sys is a replacement ansi.sys supplied by some
VGA card maker but that is only a guess.  It would be nice to have a little 
more info.

The above statements are only my opinions.  They in no way reflect the official
opinions of IBM or of IBM AWD Development.
