You could make a command that launches an xterm then runs dosemu. To start an xterm with some specific number of columns and lines, use the -geometry option.
For example: xterm -geometry 80x20 -e dosemu launches dosemu in an 80 column by 20 line display. I don't know if this is adequate for your application, but you might try it. --- Larry Alkoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm using Kubuntu Hardy Heron on a Dell laptop which > has a wide screen. > I always use dosemu with the large vga12x30.pcf font > which my old eyes > can see. > > When I invoke dosemu, the bottom 2 or 3 lines are > chopped off. > > Apparently dosemu is trying to use an 80x25 screen > that won't fit. > > I know there is a way to change the screen > parameters with > stty cols 80 rows 25. > > How could I use stty to specify an 80x23 screen? > Or should I change something else like /etc/dosemu > or ~/.dosemurc? > > Larry > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace. > It's the best place to buy or sell services for > just about anything Open Source. > http://sourceforge.net/services/buy/index.php > _______________________________________________ > Freedos-user mailing list > Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
