Accuterm is pretty good at things like transferring a file from the host to the client and then opening the file in a viewer application like notepad or excel. Or opening a web browser on the client that connects to a web page on the host. If the display is mostly a very wide report then you could get some mileage from that. What kind of things are on the display that you think you need 600+ columns?

Re: [U2] Green Screen - Wide Screen
This seemed like an interesting challenge for late in the day :-) I took an unreleased future version of AnzioWin (our terminal emulator), stretched the window across two 23 monitors, and set the character width to 600. Sure enough, things blew up. But not that badly! I found and fixed 4 or 5 things that were still limited to 255, and now have it running. Text is narrow but tolerable, currently 6 pixels wide. I'm working in that mode, typing email into Pine. It looks doable. Another alternative would be a 600-wide buffer that was scrollable at the Windows side. I think I have that capability tucked away somewhere here. Contact me if interested.
