console.gotoxy() should be exactly accurate. Note that the X and Y cursor coordinates are 1-based. You may be off by 1.

There are several things { and } can be used for.
1. To surround blocks of code that contain more than one statement, such as:
if (x === 1)
{
console.print("x is 1");
console.crlf();
console.pause();
}
2. When defining functions:
function printNumber(num)
{
console.print(num);
}
3. When defining objects:
var anObj = {
aNum: 1,
aString: "String"
};
There may be more cases I'm not thinking of.
