The program flood
A program that writes lines to its terminal as fast as it can.
Each line has four runs of text with four styles: a number, a level, a name, a text. The program sends no escape sequence: the style of a run is a field of its record. The status has the count of lines.
The program has no surface. It reads the keys of the person from its terminal: the key Space stops the lines, and starts them again. While the lines do not move, the program waits for a key and uses no processor.

Exports

Read from the source of the module, as the build reads it to describe the exports (tools/kerneltool/describe.odin).

| Grants | {.Terminal} | |
| Budget: pages, programs, threads | {pages = 256, programs = 1, threads = 1} |
Read from grants_of and things_of in programs/root/main.odin; budget_of in the same file adds the limits of processor time and of log records.
