This is by design: these functions write to the area between the 5th and 
the 20th line.  If that is what you see, it's expected behavior.

I'm not sure why this design was chosen.  DJ?

You can easily change the source of these functions, if you want to write 
to the entire screen.  The source is in the djlsr203.zip distribution, in 
the file src/libc/pc_hw/mono/mono.c.  The code is very simple and should 
be straightforward to change.
