        !            41: are of three kinds:
        !            42: string valued options,
        !            43: numeric valued options,
        !            44: and boolean options.
        !            45: The string valued options are the most complicated,
        !            46: since they may include padding information,
        !            47: which we describe now.

        !            49: Intelligent terminals often require padding on intelligent operations
        !            50: at high (and sometimes even low) speed.
        !            51: This is specified by a number before the string in the capability,

        !            55: This normally is a number of milliseconds to pad the operation.
        !            56: In the current system which has no true programmable delays,
        !            57: we do this by sending a sequence of pad characters

        !            61: In some cases, the pad is better computed as some number of milliseconds
        !            62: times the number of affected lines
        !            63: (to the bottom of the screen usually,
        !            64: except when terminals have insert modes which will shift several lines.)
        !            65: This is specified as,
