Can anyone comment on the safeness of using address 0 as scratch space? 
I've done this for a while--another alternative is to write into the
screen buffer if you're on a + or SE, but the address is longer and
harder to type.  Is there anything important there that's being
overwritten?  I don't think I've had any problems with doing this, so
I'd guess there's not, but that's just a guess.
