Package: xterm Version: 312-2 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
For those of us using a machine without a video card a serial console is quite useful, and in many cases that serial console is controled by xterm or similar terminal emulator (in my case it is almost always xterm and screen), due to the continued decrease in availability of hardware serial terminals (not much of a loss there). now one of the cool new features of using a modern terminal emulator with rs232 (in adition to utf8, 256 color, sixel graphics (sorry), etc.) is resizable terminal windows. This is not very dificult as long as you execute xterm's resize on the remote machine after each resize. (see: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/16578/resizable-serial-console-window) The one chalenge is in the case of machines that are not running any graphics software and do not need or want xterm installed, but do want xterm's resize. Which brings me to my request, split resize into a seprate package and depend on it to preserve existing functionality while allowing headless machines to install just resize.
