2 Same as 0, but specifies the display as an HP terminal
3 Same as 0, but specifies the display as an HP terminal.
4 Allows video attributes to be initialized just before the next display, instead of at the end of the previous display. Also, the initialization will not occur when the cursor is already on the correct position for the next display and the attributes are equal to the incoming video attributes.
