Subject: [MiNT] TosWin console


I was writing some data to the console with printf and saw that \n wasn't
behaving as I expected. Instead of starting the following data at the
start of the next line it was just on the line below at the same offset.
Like this:


123
  abc
     123
        abc

the code was something like:

printf ("shift=%04X \n ctrl=%04X \n", shift, ctrl);

I suspect I was tired and doing something really stupid.
No, it's not you ;-) The version of Highwire I have on my Milan prints some debugging statements in the same way. Perhaps it has printed some terminal control codes earlier that causes this?

Ahh I hadn't thought of that, I don't know much about VT terminal
control.

I then tried to clear the console but there doesn't seem to be an option
to do it from the TosWin menu. I just had to close it and re-open.
