(RT and VAX 7.1)

vi appears to have a limit of 70 visible lines.  If used in a window with
more than 70 lines, it will use only the top 70 and scroll incorrectly
(since it assumes that a return at the end of the 70th line will scroll the
display).

This limit does not appear on some other systems (AIX 3.1 and ultrix 4.0).
