Unfortunate. Even if the partial line had been flushed, I can't think
of any output device that can't achieve the desired result. If there
were one, it would be a rare case. One of my main desires for
advance=3Dno is to be able to overlay as CVF originally sup****ted,
although I've converted nearly everything to GUIs now, so this type of
processing is less im****tant for me.
