What I want is the ability to on the fly change resolution of some
output I am looking at.   It can be extreme and hard to read, but I'm
only doing so for a moment - maybe to review the report to make sure
everything was centered.    Then I zoom in to a readable level.

To do this, the mainframe has to give the power to the terminal
program - allowing it to ask for as many rows and columns as it wants,
without assuming a particular terminal size.
