10.2.2 Character output
To output a character at the current position of the cursor, it is sufficient to write this
character to the data block. The cursor is then moved forward one position (except at the
end of the display). At the end of the line a LF is performed. On the last line at the last
position, the cursor remains stationary and writes the remaining text at this position.
Example: The text "
Euchner
" is output at the current cursor position
