Printing information is buffered. This means that text may not display on your terminal immediately. Printing a newline (\n) flushes the buffer and displays all buffered text. A newline is automatically added by println, but no other print functions. For more information about C0 libraries, see the C0 library reference. To illustrate this point:

  acappiel@unix10:~$ coin -lconio
  C0 interpreter (coin) 0.3.2 'Nickel' (r256, Thu Jan  3 14:18:03 EST 2013)
  Type `#help' for help or `#quit' to exit.
  --> print("hi");
  (void)
  --> print("\n");
  hi
  (void)
  --> println("hello");
  hello
  (void)
  --> #quit
  Goodbye!
