Well, yeah, but there's a big difference between "it works on several
varieties of UNIX and DOS" and "it's portable across C
implementations".  Different sets of commonalities.  I mean, does it
work on Atari 8-bit computers?  Apple II?  NES? :)

I agree that it's unfortunate that the Commodore 64 display driver
doesn't have a way of sending the cursor back to the first column via
a CHROUT call.  (The Commodore 128 one does, although you have to send
two characters, ESC followed by J.)
