| My patch is not quick hack but an appropriate change to conform to
| rfc1288 in its own way, although there are some compromised points due
| to imperfection of rfc1288 and concern about actuality of terminals.

| I got several comments about it and explained about them.

| If there is no other significant objection, I will commit it tomorrow.
