-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.SS newpad
-The \fBnewpad\fR routine creates and returns a pointer to a new pad data
-structure with the given number of lines, \fInlines\fR, and columns,
-\fIncols\fR.
-A pad is like a window, except that it is not restricted by the
-screen size, and is not necessarily associated with a particular part of the
-screen.
-Pads can be used when a large window is needed, and only a part of the
-window will be on the screen at one time.
-Automatic refreshes of pads
-(e.g., from scrolling or echoing of input) do not occur.
