+.B "\-clipupdates \fInum_boxes\fP"
+Specify an optional threshold, above which the boxes in a shadow
+update operation will be collected into a GDI clipping region. The
+clipping region is then used to do a single bit block transfer that is
+constrained to the updated area by the clipping region. There is some
+overhead involved in creating, installing, destroying, and removing
+the clipping region, thus there may not be much benefit for a small
+number of boxes (less than 10). It is even possible that this
+functionality does not provide a benefit at any number of boxes; we
+can only determine the usefullness of this feature through testing.
