Thanks Sri, that worked. I thought I tried that, but I may h
Check what gets updated when you change the screen size to one of the other
listed values. It must be saving it somewhere, either in a config file or in
the registry. And there's only so many places that PCOMM stores configuration
files.
When you find what's updated, note how it stores
plyMode=Auto
HostCodePage=1047-U
Screensize=50x135
Save it and then launch the pcomm session.

As a result, I've started down the path of upgrading to version 14.
