2.3.4.7 Text-Mode Cursor Down (@D)

The Text-Mode Cursor Down command moves cursor's Y position down by one. The X position is unaffected. If at the end of the screen, the display will scroll vertically. It only works in text mode.

This command is basically only useful for creating "staircase effects".
