I have used Mod 4 (43x80) for years. There are times when a wider screen would be useful, but Mod 5 e.g. shrinks characters to Lilliputian scale. Maybe if I had a giant 4K monitor I would jack up the density...

And still the most popular (3270) screen resolution I use is 24x80. Atavism ;-) I also use 43x80 and rarely 24x132 or 42x132. BTW: I wish I would have any resolution *I want* and my application simply supported it. That wasn't case at least for ControlM panels ("illegal" resolutions caused abend). -- Radoslaw Skorupka Lodz, Poland ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
