Does PCOMM allow you to configure it as 3290 (i.e., explicit
partitions)? If so, and if the application uses the ISPF Dialog
Manager, then you can use VSPLIT before running the application and
let it run in an 80-wide window.

TERMINAL doesn't *change* the screen geometry; it tells the software
what geometry to assume. What ahh[ens if you set the screen width to
160?
>The problem now is what are this very old applications doing?
Among other things, probably using 12-bit addresses, which won't work
with a large screen.
