Subject: Scroll the window only once during reflow
ncurses implements scrolling as a memmove of the array of lines
pointers, which happens each time a line is added to the bottom of the
window, causing a scroll. This would get noticeably slow if WindowLines
were increased to just 1024. Should've used a ring buffer, I think.
