No. That's just intialization, to the screens defaults.

J?> 1 - is this the way? Basically, if I type xdos in a xterm, I'd like

J?> only with graphics, according to good authority, and changing the
J?> font does well, change the font.
Run a dos program that changes the size, the number of rows and columns.
It that doesn't work it's a bug.
I know I have had 80x50 and simliar standard vairants on my screen.
J?> 2 - Why doesn't it work well if I increase columns beyond 80, when
J?> in console mode it works really well at 112x40, started from a 112x40
J?> virtual console (with SVGATextMode)?
Ah, you appreciate that misfeature.
Personally I think it gives a lot of trouble, to dos programs.
Most assume an 80x25 or very similiar screen layout.
