You're right.  I was overstating to call the little one line descriptions 
"explanation".    And this stuff is old.  I remember once having written 
myself a little edit macro for comments that would create a nice solid 
line box around comment text, but it looked like garbage unless you were 
using 3278T to view it.  This was back when my terminal actually WAS a 
real 3278 with TEXT keyboard. 

I wonder how well this one would match up with code page 1047: 
28. 3278L1  (3276, 3278, or 3279 terminal with Latin-1 character set) 

See this for a table showing how 3278A and 3278T map codepoints.
