Subject: ansi.sys seems to help Linux terminal apps

The built-in cygnus version of ansi.sys that every gcc console application
inherits from cygwin.dll seems to work differently, and slightly better,
when you have devicehigh=ansi.sys in your config.sys file.

Now, if only the cygwin.dll version of ansi.sys did a better job of
keeping up with fast typists and with filling in portions of the termcap
screen, there would be no need to talk about going over to CRT.DLL.
