Jeremy,

You might want to check out the NT/Win95 console package written by
Jerry van Dijk.  You can find it at
http://stad.dsl.nl/~jvandyk/
This has a clear screen procedure and also has cursor and color control
procedures.  I don't know whether there is any way to "lock" the top of
the screen, but you could emulate that by using the cursor control to
re-write the top line(s) after every output.

Regards,
Bill Ghrist
