Think C provides an automatically-created "console window" for programs
using unix-type I/O (printf, scanf). This console window is full-size
when the program is run without multifinder, but under multifinder the
console window is very small. Giving the application more memory does
not seem to help. How do I get a bigger console window?
Thanks!

However, I don't recall any mention of this strange behavior under MultiFinder. Futhermore, I almost always run under MultiFinder and I've never observed this behavior. Has anyone else seen this behavior? Ken Lindahl lindahl@violet.berkeley.edu Advanced Technology Planning, Information Systems and Technology University of California at Berkeley

This problem has been solved via email correspondence. In Think C version 3.0
there is a _HALFWINDOW_ compilation flag that has to be removed from the
stdio library.
Thanks to all who replied!
