Just a side-note, this is not really about DOS, I use 80x25 xterms on Linux all the time. But I have no problem with one or two lines more or less in the output, either way. DOS users have a problem with -V output already I assume, whatever they do to handle that can probably also be applied to the case without -V. > option (for me). i will try to factor in their line limit and inability > to scroll (is that still correct for freedos?) in future patches though. No idea if scrolling is possible or not. I think the best option would be to have a more finegrained control of the loglevel in flashrom, i.e. --log-level=0,1,2,3 etc. (instead of "no -V", "-V", and "-VV"), so the user can also choose 0 or 1 to get only the bare minumum output.
