FB> Procomm, Telix and MS-Kermit do it the same way {COMMO} does.
The version of Procomm Plus I had did not, Portal of Power does not, ANSI.SYS 
does not (which is why TheDraw works the way it does), and my BBS does not.  
This is still a trivial matter.  The ansi spec does not call for this, and as 
such, any program emiting ANSI/BBS codes should assume nothing more than what 
is needed.  The ANSI/SPEC assumes that the cursur would have moved to the 
ext
line before the next sequence was sent.  Even if you are not going to move 
he
the next line before processing the UP sequence, you should move to the next 
like on the next character after the UP sequence, which still puts the cursur 
in the correct location.  I am sure this is probably a quite simple fix...
All I do is create ANSI screens for display on the BBS, when my users 
omplain
I have to research the problem, now, I may test some of these other programs 
out, but I can tell you I have no problems with the Windows95 terminal 
program, the Windows95 ANSI.SYS driver, Renegade BBS, and a few other 
programs.
