It makes a LOT of sense even if you have just NTSC. How about when you go
interlace?  You can have 48 lines instead of 24!  How about when you use
morerows?  You can get 30 or 60 lines on NTSC.  And if you have an A3000
(or flicker fixer) they'll all be rock solid. And what if you have an A2024
or Viking 1?  It is quite easy to check the screen size AND the current
window size.  A-Talk III recomputes the max cols/rows even in workbench
on the fly, and reset the terminal to those sizes.  It is really very simple.
