I recently got a piece of mail reporting a possible bug in NC.COM. 
It related to the the cursor disappearing when the <Ins> key was
pressed and re-appearing when the key was pressed again.  If anyone
else is having this problem or knows the cause, please drop me a
note.  I have been unable to inflict this problem, but while testing
on a monochrome monitor, I learned a couple more pieces of info. 
First, the standard monochrome block is 0-D.  The wrap-arround
doesn't seem to work on monochrome adapters.  I made a mistake in my
orriginal posting by saying that 0 represented 10.  Instead, 0 is
before 1 (in other words, the first line), and 'A' represents 10.  I
hope this didn't confuse anyone.
