In SwiftX v2 emitting a carriage return character (13) moved the cursor to
the beginning of the currentl line. In this way, one could create
low-volume status output. For instance, the following would print progress
on one line:

: test CR 100 0 DO $d EMIT I . [CHAR] % EMIT LOOP $d EMIT ." Done" ;

SwiftX v3 $d EMIT moves the cursor to the next line so output is expanded
onto many lines, e.g.
0 %
1 %
2 %
...
97 %
98 %
99 %
Done ok

How can the pure <CR> behavior be done in v3?
