The conio documentation is rather incomplete:

  http://www.cc65.org/doc/funcref-5.html

but if you open cc65/include/conio.h you'll find plenty of comments
next to every function prototype. It's fairly self explanatory, but
there's one big gotcha: it doesn't handle screen scrolling. If you
print text outside the screen, you'll overwrite memory and most likely
crash.

Oh, and the reason you want to use conio instead of stdio is perfor-
mance. The conio functions are smaller and faster.
