As said in the Python curses documentation
A pad is a special case of a window; it can be larger than the actual display screen, and only a portion of the pad displayed at a time. Creating a pad requires the pad’s height and width, while refreshing a pad requires giving the coordinates of the on-screen area where a subsection of the pad will be displayed.
Giterm reactivity may be largely improved by using this mechanism (creating a entire Pad for all the content of every Window) instead of changing text in-place at scroll time.
Note: Pads don't care about the real size of the area where they appear, so text shortening (lines ending with ... when too long) might be lost.
