More (and 'clear') don't send out the terminal initialization/
uninitialization strings when they start up/finish, so some
terminals don't work right (since they need to be put in a
special mode in order to home the cursor, etc).  ``more'', in
particular, screws up when I don't have :am: in my termcap,
but autowrap is normally set, and only cleared via the :ti=:
entry (then set again by :te=:).  It thinks that it needs to
put out an extra CRLF after long lines, so it ends up scrolling
information off the top of the screen.
