[net.micro.amiga] Console Device bug?

jdt@bucsb.UUCP (Dave Tenny) (04/14/86)

I believe the following to be a bug in the console.device,
can anyone verify this?

I am using separate read/write requestblocks, DoIO for writes, and
SendIO for reads.  I have Lattice V3.03 compiler.

When I send the sequence 0x9B6E (alias CSI-n or DEVICE STATUS REPORT)
to the console.device, I do not receive the input documented in the 
Rom Kernal Manual under the Console Device section, page 3-69.

I receive NO data in the input stream, when I should receive 
   <CSI><row>;<column>R

Is this a bug, or what am I doing wrong?

If this is a bug, how can I get the cursor position?

Thanks in advance!
