There we go. Right.. and as with shells, they automatically throws in a
\r. Sometimes, though, the auto \r gets lost (when with TCL at times in
my experiences). This is known as the stair stepping (or whatever it's called)
effect. Sometimes you'll get this through telnet with certain servers (if
you talk to them yourself as I often do).
NOTE: Windoze, as noted above, should be DOS (since Windoze is nothing
more than an overlay and it still runs under DOS).
