was looking at /help special variables and saw background=on. I was
wondering, if background was set to off, and then when some output was
recieved by a background world, one sent it an echo of "---" would this
cause the "---" to show in the world before new text? as new text would
only be processed after it is brought into the foreground. or would the
echo not be processed either?

Of all God's creatures there is only one that cannot be made the slave
of the lash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with a cat it
would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat.
