    I'm not clear why Terminal::dec_row() is messing with the lncntr: it shouldn't. The line counter is the number of potentially unread/acknowledged lines of displayed text. I don't see how moving the cursor up the screen should impact that number.

    Discussion around line_counter, handling overflow, and what a good way to tame the auto-pause beast is.

    "iCE Color"

    SyncTERM can do that if the BBS sends the appropriate commands. Should the ANSI terminal object dynamically twiddle the appropriate bit?

    ctrlkey_passthru and single-byte controls in non-ANSI... for example, cursor-down is CTRL-Q in PETSCII.

    ctrlkey_passthru and single-byte controls in non-ANSI... for example, cursor-down is CTRL-Q in PETSCII, but CTRL-J in "Synchronet".

    P_PETSCII and P_NATIVE translate CR/LF in slightly different ways (see putmsg.cpp). This should be resolved (and touches in the whole "binary vs. text mode" issue)
