Automatically displaying some part of files/UPDATING to the user is
great. It would just be little more easier to manage if it would display
up to the next entry (e.g. stop when line ^## is found) rather than a
predefined number of lines. Thus eliminating the need to support the
_UPD_LINE_NO variable.
