Here's what I got so far. It's not great but I had to throw it together
quickly. You use the function "printw_truncate" to print a truncated line to
the screen. The function "printw_truncate" in turn calls the function
"printw_truncate_no_new_line" in order to deal with strings that contain
new-line characters.

I think it could be done most easily by using a subwindow whose scrolling
property is set to false.
