Echo without newline query

I am using, executed with WSH at a WinXP sp3 command prompt by
CSCRIPT $1.JS,

for (Y=0 ; Y<=6e6 ; Y++) {
// ...
if (Y%1e5 == 0) WScript.echo(Y) // show progress
}

to show progress. Of course, that generates 61 lines on-screen, as the
echo is of "number CR LF". Is there a way of showing progress on one
line? In Pascal, I would use "Write(number, ^M);" where ^M gives CR.

It's a good idea to read the newsgroup c.l.j and its FAQ. See below.
