The manual DOS 2.0 manual clearly states that output to the screen under
the control of the ANSI driver should be done with direct console
output functions. These are DOS functions 2,6, and 7. You may also use
something like LATTICE's cprintf routines. These go directly to the
console. It is possible that the print routine you were referring to did
not send stuff directly to the console port. As to the problem with CR and
LF - you may be right. As it is the doc seems as brain damaged as the
driver.
