Since you are going to look into it, most of the standard output
routines, such as, puts(), seem to only go to 80 columns. If I do
puts(1, repeat("-", 100)) the line is wrapped or truncated at column
80. So there is more involved here than just getting the rows and columns.
It seems that that information (rows and columns) is used by Euphoria's
routines. Not a giant issue in general. However, I am very interested in
good, useful, and powerful console I/O. 

Again, I am not pushing. But if you do look at the issue, why not look at
all aspects.

Thanks for your response
