TEXT definitely uses it.  It’s hard to tell because the emulation isn’t quite 
right using PuTTY, but when I was messing with VT100.CO it seemed like the 
screen in TEXT got all messed up when scrolling down through a large file 
unless I sized the window at 80x25.  It still seems to get really messed up if 
I turn on the Label line (although worse if it’s 80x24).  I think BASIC is 
pretty messed up with the Label line turned on, too.  I’ll have to go try it.

Are TEXT and TELCOM maybe the only M100 applications which actually make use of 
the full 80x25 of a DVI?  I hadn’t really thought about it.  If the screen area 
of the MVT100 is not user-selectable then I guess 80x24 is the most compatible 
mode – not so useful for TEXT or TELCOM or having the Label line turned on in 
BASIC but definitely best for CP/M and at least it’ll give a large area to 
scroll for BASIC programs that weren’t intended for the M100…

it is 80x24.  I don't think any M100 applications use 80x25 at all actually. 
Does anything use DVI?
