That's great.

But what does a 40 Colum Display have to do with a 40 ROW display? The
standard text screen that ProTerm uses is 80 Colums by 23 or 24 Rows.

The Pee Cee users have an option to have a 132 Colum by 40 Row screen. I use
this alot on my 386 at 14,400 and it's quite nice. Give a lot more screen room
so you can resize the window. 

Of course, with DOZ and Windoze, you can set the Font that DOZ applications
will run under a window. So, you can basically use Telix with a Small font
that will give you a full 80x24 screen but have it only take up a quarter of
your "desktop".
