You _can_ open a cONsole window with more than 128 bytes of input buffer
("con_512x202a0x0_256", for example). But you _cannot_ tell S*Basic to open #0
like that as default.
I just checked:
close#0:open#0,"con_512x256a0x0_1024"
seems to work. Unfortunately, I cannot check how large the keyboard buffer
allocated might be.
