Ah. Perhaps I'm remembering it incorrectly. It's been a long time since I used
the BIOS-based windowing functions. :)

Which exactly BIOS/DOS interrupt/function you mean? Just made a short
test using int 10h/06
and it doesn't work that way.
It makes a "wi
The content will indeed wrap, just on a per-character basis instead of

If you're speaking purely about limiting the cursor to the bounds of the
current window (which is what I believe you're referring to), yes I believe it

unknown to me) interrupt/function.

Googling around gave no result. It seems it doesn't exist „ready for
use”, so just to make sure:
does DOS/BIOS offer any possibility to set active screen output
