From: William "Chops" Westfield <BILLW@SRI-KL.ARPA> It should also be pointed out that, in addition to being faster than DOS I/O calls, ROM BIOS calls or direct manipulation of the display memory was the only way to do anything like cursor positioning and the like in DOS 1.X, the ANSI-like terminal controls are new for DOS 2.0, and still offer much less capability than is present in the ROM.
