I have found a definite, repeatable bug in 1.2.  The problem is in the
Intuition text routines, when scrolling underlined text in a CLI window.
An underlined charcter in the far upper right of a console device window leaves
behind a dot when it scrolls.

To see the bug, just type a Lattice map file (I know the 3.03 map file works)
that is more than one screen long.  Use the full-size 80 column CLI.

At first I thought it was a flaky bit in memory.  But it only occurred in the
CLI and with map files.  When I typed a different file with an underline in
the upper right and saw the same bug, I realized the source.

What worries me is the dot it might be leaving behind SOMEWHERE ELSE...
