- hideturtle --Command, no inputs. Abbreviation: ht
- This command applies only to the display turtle. It erases the
- display of the turtle itself from the screen, so that only the lines
- drawn when the turtle moves are visible. The display is faster when
- the turtle is hidden (only slightly faster on the Atari, but much fas-
- ter on other terminals). Also, once a graphics program is debugged,
- it may be prettier to watch without the turtle visible. (Note: On
- the Tektronix display, the turtle is never visible, because the termi-
- nal cannot erase selectively.)
