std.stdio.stderr

[Russel Winder via Digitalmars-d-learn]

It appears that std.stdio.stderr does not wor exactly as stdio stderr
does. In particular std.stdio.stderr.writef(…) does not work as
fprintf(stderr…) does.

Some code I am porting from C++ to D makes use of ANSI escape codes to
go up a line and overwrite what was there, as well as change colours.
This work fine in the C++ code but fails in the D code. The codes are
definitely all the same, the only difference is in the writing
functions.

Is this problem to be expected or should it work?
