: Wide Screen Setup

[JOHAN Johan Koelewijn]

We use 132 columns screens for many years now (on OpenVMS), but I agree with Kent that they ought to be avoided where possible.
We experienced a bug when using threads in combination with screens in both 80 and 132 columns. When toggling from 80 to 132 and back, screen information is lost from column 81.
