| Issue |
We're writing a QNX4 application that uses both printf() and term_printf() in its user interface modules. Problem is, even when some term_printf() are called before the printf(), the output of the printf() appears first! We've tried putting a sleep() in before the printf() call, but to no avail.

| Solution |
The term...() functions are all buffered. Thus to siege output immediately from a term_printf(), set the TERM_FLUSH flag or do a separate term_flush() call. For example:
term_printf(11,5,TERM_NORMALITERM_FLUSH,"Press a key to continue");
x09OR
term_printf(11,5,TERM_NORMAL."Go ahead,");
term_printf(11,5,TERM_NORMAL,"Press a key to continue");
term_flush();
