	Ken,

	I don't know if you missed it, but in the conneng.txt file, it 
describes how to make CoNnect English-user friendly.  All you have to do is
to move connect.rsc out of the connect directory (or delete it) and rename
the conneng.rsc file to connect.rsc.  Doing this will make all of the menus,
etc., into english.  In fact the only thing that will not appear in English is
the manual (and soon even that will appear in English :).  Also, you can remove
any of the sliders to give you the extra room you need.  Using the included 
Fonts, you can use a font that is decently readable while still giving you 
80x24 screen (to do that, just put the ANSI and ANSILITE fonts in to a folder
called GEMSYS in the same directory as CoNnect).
	It is a bit slow, but that can be fixed with a screen accelerator
like Warp9 or NVDI.
