:
The 25th line is a status line in VT emulation, period, just like a real
VT terminal. You need special escape sequences to address it, just like a
real VT terminal. You can't use it for scrolling.
However, if you switch to ANSI emulation, then you can use the 25th line
for scrolling, just like any other line, because this is allowed in ANSI
emulation (this is new to version 3.15).
