let me see if i understand the problem. the proterm scrollback buffer 
doesn't seem to capture the text that scrolled past while using a program 
like pine? this is because, as such, nothing scrolls off the screen when 
using pine - it redraws the screen each time, using (if set up for) 
vt-100 screen control commands. incoming _raw_ characters can be captured 
using the open-apple-c command.
