I agree, it got worse with 1.5 which added the version number. On the
other hand, I'm kind of old school and still do some work with old
VT100 consoles which doesn't have scrollback so saving lines is
important. Maybe no one else ever use this?

A compromise would be to use tabs instead of spaces, that should raise
readability without using lots of lines. I could try that in the next
beta and see what you think.
