Is there a way to make the top four lines on the console be in a "virtual 
window" so that the scrolling text goes "underneath" the top 4 lines?
Can this be done with ANSI terminal controls or does this need to be done 
by cygwin?

I think I remember doing something like this a long time ago, when it was 
console or CGA graphics only.
Of course I can't find my code, and ANSI is on the net in too many places 
to get a good search find for this.

Thanks,

Matt
