    I've just discovered something of interest... there's a BIOS
variable which controls the number of lines that can be written to the
screen! Just do this:

DEF SEG=&H40
POKE &h84, numberlines

Where numberlines is the number of lines you want ANSI.SYS to print to,
minus one. Don't forget to set this variable back to it's original value
once your done!

Damn... I've made an entire ANSI emulator for nothing... just my luck!
