You forgot to print something after the carriage return. It works for me:

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Sep 15 2010, 15:52:39)
[GCC 4.4.5] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> print 'a'+chr(13)+'b'
b
>>>

the carriage return resets the cursor to the beginning of the line, so
you can write over what you wrote before.
