How about allowing one character for non-stop scrolling? (= or whatever),
that shouldn't be impossible to implement? 

I guess you reset the counter for puts at every new text that's being printed,
ie, at the same time the "nonstop" flag is cleared if you've set it
earlier? (haven't looked at the source, I'll do so when I get home to my
Linux-box...)
