[comp.sys.mac] Looking for a Telnet-like program with resizable windows

rda@epistemi.ed.ac.uk (Robert Dale) (04/26/89)

The subject line says it all, I think.  We make heavy use of NCSA
Telnet to log in to UNIX machines across an AppleTalk-Ethernet bridge,
but some of us on Macs with larger-than-standard screens would like to
be able to enlarge our terminal windows too.  Can anyone point me to
any software that will let me do this, PD or otherwise?

I am using version 2.3a7 of NCSA Telnet (which runs with MacTCP)
which supports resizable windows on a session basis.  In fact,
this very message is being written in a 36x80 window.  I have not
yet figured out how to make the window longer than 80 columns, or
even if this is possible.  My only complaint is that the window
size must be entered at the beginning of each session.  At least,
I haven't figured out how to preserve it across sessions.  Maybe
I ought to try to find TFM.
