These routines give the user a method of updating screens with reasonable
optimization. They keep an image of the current screen, and the user
sets up an image of a new one. Then the r

\bh() tells the routines to
make the current screen look like the new one. In order to initialize
the routines, the routine i
\bin

\br() must be called before any of the oth-
er routines that deal with windows and screens are used. The routine
e

\bin
\bn() should be called before exiting.
