DECSSCLS — set scroll speed
DECSSCLS (Set Scroll Speed) controls how fast the terminal scrolls when new lines are added at the bottom. The sequence is
CSI Ps p where Ps specifies the scroll speed: 0 or 1 for normal speed, 2-8 for progressively faster speeds. Defined in the VT510 reference manual.
This is a VT510-era feature that controlled the physical scrolling speed of CRT terminals. On modern terminal emulators it has little practical effect since rendering is immediate, but Contour implements it for VT510 compatibility.How this is testedpartial

The same probe runs against headless backends (via Termless) and real terminal apps (via a daemon launched in each terminal). This lets us distinguish parser correctness from rendering correctness.
