Andrew,
If you use MAX, you get 60x160 for the screen size, however, you get
gutters on the left and right when looking at FB 80 files (JCL, Asm,
etc). If you apply the APAR's Ed mentions, you can use DATA, and get
51x80 now, or 62x80 with the logon APAR, full screen for JCL/ASM files,
and 61x160
In place of step (3) below, perhaps you could do a handful of confighfs -x
sec_extent_sizeC mountpoint. Reference the confighfs command in the
zOS Unix Commands reference of your release.
