   So this one is interesting... it looks like the reason behind this is that   
   terminal abstraction branch knows that the cursor wrapped after printing `[   
   lOADING MESSAGE POINTERS... 100.0% ]` and doesn't allow cursor_left() to wrap,   
   so the CR/CEOF takes place on the next line.   
      
   In master however, cursor_left() behaves differently between C64 and ANSI   
   modes, so it will wrap to the previous line, and so the CR/CEOF happens up   
   there.   
      
   Master in 40-column ANSI mode:
