	Many communications products on the Macintosh will do (a) just fine,
but doing (b) will be a bit hard since THERE IS NO SUCH THING!!  According
to the DEC VT100/ANSI standard there are only provisions for a 80 and a 132
column VT100 terminal (and therefore VT100 emulators as well).
	If you can show me a spec for a 160 column VT100, I would love to
see it!
