patch 7.4.2109
Problem:    Setting 'display' to "lastline" is a drastic change, while
            omitting it results in lots of "@" lines.
Solution:   Add "truncate" to show "@@@" for a truncated line.

 	Change the way text is displayed.  This is comma separated list of
 	flags:
 	lastline	When included, as much as possible of the last line
-			in a window will be displayed.  When not included, a
-			last line that doesn't fit is replaced with "@" lines.
+			in a window will be displayed.  "@@@" is put in the
+			last columns of the last screen line to indicate the
+			rest of the line is not displayed.
+	truncate	Like "lastline", but "@@@" is displayed in the first
+			column of the last screen line.  Overrules "lastline".
 	uhex		Show unprintable characters hexadecimal as <xx>
 			instead of using ^C and ~C.
 
+	When neither "lastline" or "truncate" is included, a last line that
+	doesn't fit is replaced with "@" lines.
