Hey guys, It's probably not all that important that the context of this is while running screen via a putty session, though it could be related to other things.
When I "screen -R" or "screen -RD", the window is always resized rather small. I have putty setup to be larger that the standard 80 column window, but it always seems to flip back to 80ish columns when I reattach. On a related note, in a normal fullscreen terminal (and emulator), things that use progress bars (wget, et al) span the entire width of the terminal, but when under screen they seem to span the same 80ish column area. Now, I have no hard facts, but I'm pulling at straws - it seems that screen is set to use 80 column widths by default. Is there anyway I can: a) use a typical wide terminal (132 columns) or more ideally: b) tell screen to use whatever width the parent terminal reports Thanks in advance _______________________________________________ screen-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/screen-users
