Returns: (none)

Info: This displays a string of text, using a specified video attribute
and starting at a specified screen location.
This does not change the cursor position.
This function treats these characters specially:
CR (0dH) ─── cursor to start of same line
LF (0aH) ─── cursor to current clm on next lower line
BEL (07H) ─── beep the speaker
Notice that you must supply both CR+FL to perform a natural
"newline" (that is, to move the cursor to the start of the next
lower line).
Note: This fn requires that you modify BP. When calling from high-
level languages such as C, be very careful to save and restore
BP, since it is used to keep track of the "stack frame".
