Darren,

You probably *will* need to not ignore the SAVE/RESTORE operations - they
are used extensively when windows are used, for instance - the full screen
is saved, a window is displayed, and then when the window disappears, the
previous screen is restored.

However, as Scott points out, you can send *anything* in response to a SAVE
and it will come back with a RESTORE. I just send the current screen data,
along with a bunch of my own data and get it back after the restore. No need
to bother with managing your own saved copy of the screen...

The canonical response to a SAVE is the complete RESTORE command needed to re-create the current state of the terminal.
