Greetings, Warren Young!
Call "man" on a sufficiently long topic. man bash would be quite sufficient.
Or just `less` a long enough text.
Hold down "End" key.
The screen buffer will jump and tear repeatedly, until you release the key.
... as I can't reproduce it with PuTTY in the same situation.
With putty, try the Home key instead. If you hold that, the result will
look even worse. Or try to hold the Down key at the end (of man bash) â
not good either.
Slightly different effects in different environments are simply the
result of timing. You cannot completely avoid such effects if the window
contents is rewritten repeatedly.
