I played around with this a little bit.  It is dastardly slow.  It would
seem that a fair amount of assembly code is in order here, since the
author said that with virtual windowing it was even slower.  Since I
consider 100% compatibility a necessity, I would suggest the author
rewrite the buffer handling code and the screen update code in assembly.
