possible to keep the output at a set location on the screen.  I would like
to have the gallows and any additional output to appear in the same
location without printing an inordinate amount of new line characters.  The
program must also be portable so I'm trying to stay away from os specific
functions if possible.

your assistance is greatly appreciated!

I can help you with the gotoxy() function. However, this is a Windows-only
version of the function. If you still want it, let me know.

Ok, then. Here it goes. It also includes some other console functions
(wherex, wherey, clrscr, textcolor, textbackground). The code is adapted
from conio.c from dev-c++.
