[TUHS] UniPress Emacs V2.20 from 1989

[Marc Donner]

Yeah, the screen redraw stuff was tense.  As I recall, the best way to see
that was on a mid-speed line, say 9600 baud.  Slower and you could see it
but it was still just annoying.  A lot faster and there was no visible
magic.  At 9600 you could see the screen optimization doing some startling
stuff.
