That's what I was wondering -- can you install a larger font to get larger characters, or will the window still be the same size so you just get less lines and characters per line? On 01/05/2017 12:02 PM, Ralf Quint wrote: > On 1/5/2017 11:28 AM, Gordon wrote: >> Is there an easy way to double

You need to install VMWare tools in the guest to support resizing, and the tools are not available for DOS. On 01/05/2017 11:56 AM, Louis Santillan wrote: > You want to scale the window resolution [0]. There are usually a few > options/techniques to choose from. Look for scale or scaling. > >

Not sure how it is SSH2DOS is packaged, but version and package name are messed up [0]. I would have created a bug but it seems locked at the moment. There are (or should be) actually two similar packages. SSHDOS @ v0.95(equivalent to the supported OpenSSH v1.x series, supports up to SSH
