console.gotoxy() should be exactly accurate.  Note that the X and Y cursor coordinates are 1-based.  You may be off by 1.

There are several things { and } can be used for.
1. To surround blocks of code that contain more than one statement, such as:
if (x === 1)
{
   console.print("x is 1");
   console.crlf();
   console.pause();
}

2. When defining functions:
function printNumber(num)
{
   console.print(num);
}

3. When defining objects:
var anObj = {
   aNum: 1,
   aString: "String"
};

There may be more cases I'm not thinking of.
