Subject: wrong coordinates in putch(), clrscr()

Some of my programs use block-graphics generated with 
gotoxy() and putch() commands. This was working on most compilers.

When using djgpp 1.11
The cursor is set to (X,Y) by gotoxy(X,Y). 
putch(219) draws a block to position (Y,X)

X and Y are exchanged !!!


Workaround: use ScreenPutChar(), defined in pc.h


clrscr() has no effect.

Workaround: use ScreenClear(), defined in pc.h
