Buffer size: 14752
When you are using the XE Term program, it automatically sets
aside a special area in memory called a buffer for use with the
Capture Text and Upload Text functions. The size of that buffer (in
bytes) is printed at the top of the screen. When you use either
function, the buffer size reappears at screen top, and is updated
so that you're always aware of the remaining free buffer space. If
you're capturing text and the number shrinks below 1000 bytes,
it's a good idea to save your text and clear the buffer before
continuing.
