that's correct... writeln sends the CRLF which moves the cursor down one line
and returns it to the left margin...

what terminal are you using? check your terminal settings... i forget what it
is called but there is generally a setting for LF or CRLF... it sounds like you
just have LF which will simply move the cursor down a line but keep it in the
same column position...

what makes you think this? especially if you are not sending any ANSI stuff...

based on this is why i say "not sending ANSI stuff" above... if you don't have
a unit or whatever for ANSI then it shouldn't come into play...
