{ A unit to implement FULL ANSI output.  Useful for a BBS or DOOR program
  where you would want to send string out over the modem.  Simply call
  your modem routine to :

             SENDSTRING(port,ANSIGoToXY(1,1))

  Would reposition the cursor on the remote terminal.  Get the idea ??

  The thing will EVEN play ANSI music !!
