  Those functions take care of the things like '5 times you hit orc' instead of 
seeing 'you hit orc' on 5 lines.

This code was probably be useful back in the days when the x11 display code was 
in the server.  In current time, the client could take care of reducing the 
output messages/combining them together and what not.  on the counter side, by 
the server doing this, it does save some bandwidth.
