        never do this itself (unless ll does) because it can make no assumption
-       about  the  effect  of moving up from the home position.  Note that the
-       home position is the same as addressing  to  (0,0):  to  the  top  left

+       ich/ich1 as appropriate (but not both).  If you have to write an  entry

        include the rmir/smir sequences in ich1.

Highlighting, Underlining, and Visible Bells

        If your terminal has one or more kinds of display attributes, these can
-       be  represented  in  a number of different ways.  You should choose one
-       display form as standout mode,  representing  a  good,  high  contrast,

-       attention getters.  (If you have a choice,  reverse  video  plus  half-
-       bright  is  good,  or reverse video alone.)  The sequences to enter and
-       exit standout mode are given as smso and rmso,  respectively.   If  the
