That won't completely solve things, because the CRLF that gets output would
cause the screen to scroll.  You can't hardcode row 26 either, because the
screen might be 43, 44, 50, 60, 64, 66, or even 75 lines.  And it will
probably crash my system if run on my mono display because the "^C" will
overwrite highloaded TSRs at B100h....
