You mix conio functions (gotoxy) with buffered I/O (printf).  This is 
usually a bad idea, as the DJGPP FAQ explains in section 9.4.  In your 
example program, use `cprintf' instead of `printf', and it will work as 
you expect.

The program that started this thread used `cout', which is the same as 
`printf' as it uses bufferd I/O at its lower levels.
