[RTTY] WPX suggestion

I agree that scrolling back is not a high need.  For me the bigger issue is
when the line scrolls up just as you click on something, causing you to
miss.  If you have enough screen space to make each receive window
sufficiently long, plus you auto-clear the screen after each QSO, then there
may not be any scrolling before each QSO is over and you can start with a
fresh screen.

I am having a hard time seeing where there is a problem clicking on items in
the RX window of N1MM. Since I have written the RX windows (2000) and have
been in many RTTY contests  I have not needed to scroll back to click on any
exchanges. I run the windows with 8 lines in each window. I have the remove
multiple return characters turned on and I honestly have never had to scroll
to get a missed exchange. I guess I just must be very talented with a mouse.
And yes The reason for not adopting the same type of window as WL is the
control that is used for the RX window does not have the needed API calls to
provide that manipulations needed.
