AUATC produces eight-color video at 800 x 600 resolution, which can 
accommodate 32 lines of 80 text characters each. A typical ASCII 
terminal uses 24 lines, so AUATC uses the eight extra lines to provide 
system-status and help information. These eight lines are divided so that 
four are at the top of the screen and four are at the bottom.
