Ya know, I tried that when all the support came in (IBM and emulator) - and 
thanks for your work BTW,  but even though I don't like the "white space"
on ISPF option 6 (which I use rarely anyway), I found keeping a consistent
font size by always using 62 x 142 (what I use) was much easier on the eyes
instead of the font constantly changing.   When I expand win-doze windows
(for most apps I work with on the desktop) the font size doesn't change. 

The perception of many people I work with is still "how can you read that
small font" and then I put it side by side next to email, and they see it
is the same size or even a bit bigger.
