if I run owl and quit, and it fails, it displays the message, and then
"cleans up" the ncurses session which discards it.
write(2, "owl", 3) = 3
write(2, ": ", 2) = 2
write(2, "Connection timed out", 20) = 20
write(2, " ", 1) = 1
write(2, "while unsubscribing", 19) = 19
write(2, "\r\n", 2) = 2
close(3) = 0
write(1, "\33[34;1H\33[?1049l\r\33[?1l\33>", 23) = 23
possibly a [continue] pager in this case is cleaner than saving the
error to spit out after the session close, but either is better than
losing it.
