In other words, if the cursor is on line 24, and I want to print a carriage return, the effect I want is line 0 <= line1 line 1 <= line0 ... ... line 24 <= blank with the curser's new position being column 0, line 24. I understand how to use the PLOT routine in the fat book (the manual, that is). So my questions: Is there a KERNAL routine that does this already? I thought perhaps there was some hardware in there to make this easier. The most obvious software approach would be to stick the above in a loop controlled by the number of lines. Is the KERNAL routine any faster than this approach? Mail replies; surely nobody else would be interested in this. Thanks like always: -- --Bill Buie
