Under Unix/Linux, the default for pressing "Enter" key is to get a ^M
(Control-M).

If you send a CTRL-M to console it will move to beginning of line and will
not go to the next line.

For example: abcd^Mefgh will only display "efgh" (since "abcd" is
overwritten).

CTRL-J (the linefeed) will go to the next line and also put cursor at
beginning of line also under Unix.
