+ The <STRONG>scroll</STRONG> routine scrolls the window up one line. This
involves moving the lines in the window data structure.
As an optimization, if the scrolling region of the window
is the entire screen, the physical screen may be scrolled
at the same time.
- For positive <I>n</I>, the <B>scrl</B> and <B>wscrl</B> routines scroll the
- window up <I>n</I> lines (line <I>i</I>+<I>n</I> becomes <I>i</I>); otherwise scroll

in the window character image structure. The current cur-
sor position is not changed.
For these functions to work, scrolling must be enabled via

The SVr4 documentation says that the optimization of phys-
ically scrolling immediately if the scroll region is the
entire screen "is" performed, not "may be" performed.
This implementation deliberately does not guarantee that
- this will occur, in order to leave open the possibility of
- smarter optimization of multiple scroll actions on the
- next update.
