only process text with a maximum of 256 lines with 800 bytes per line,
although the number of lines can be modified with the
.Fl l
option.
When the number of lines is bigger,
the buffer is flushed to the output,
so new reverse line feeds can not operate in the flushed lines.
This implementation ignores SI and SO selection character sets,
because it is supposed to work only with UTF-8 strings,
