"frameset" in bash?

Hi everyone,

I am just wondering, is there any way to do something like put text on line 1 of the terminal window and then set the window's display to start at line 2, so that the text in line 1 is always on the screen?

If your particular terminal or terminal emulator supports the terminfo "csr" capability, then it is possible. By the way "csr" is a memonic for "constrained scrolling region". Both VT100 (and later) and Xterm support this capability.
