Hi everyone,
    
    I have an 80x25 array of char, and I am trying to dump it to a file
    using MSC's write().  The problem occurrs when there are exactly 80
    chars in any row, since I have to add CR and LF to the end of the row
    s.t. I get DOS' return char, the actual line ends up taking 82 char
    and when I use DOS' 'type' command a line would take up 2 line
    with second line being blank.  
    If I were to print only 78 char, I could make 79's char == CR and
    80's == LF, but how do I go about printing lines with 80 characters
    and only getting 1 line on the screen per a line of characters.


    Thank You,

    gary
