Not that size specifically, but I commonly use 132x50. To use SSL, you need to put L: in front of the connect string.

Re: Emulators (again ...)
x3270 (and c3270) are open source run great under either Linux or Windows (XP, Vista) under cygwin. The later versions support ssl, and I use them extensively on both platforms. There is a free and very simple to setup EXE for wc3270 (Windows c3270) here: http://x3270.bgp.nu/download.html For Ubuntu, you simply install the x3270 package.

I recently had a need to meander through some formatted dumps. That was enough to force me to reboot back into Vista (came with the laptop) and buy Vista (Toms). Also SSL V3 was an occasional requirement. Don't know if/how it runs under Wine; never use it.
