We were happy to discover that Network L lets you get more than than 
the default number of lines in the VT100.  Now, does anyone know 
approximately how to get Gnu Emacs to use all of these lines?

Also, for your information, the VT100-YANK patch, which lets you yank a
string from the kill ring into your VT100 window, seems to keep the
middle mouse button from bringing up the VT100-Telnet Command Menu.
At least, we get that behavior with all of our software loaded,
which software includes this patch.

While we're on the subject, yanking into the VT100 window is extremely
useful functionality.  We strongly urge TI to support it directly as
opposed to supplying it only as "public" software.  The miniscule size
of the patch suggests that the effort and support costs should be very
low.

I haven't used the Explorer VT100 application for a while, but the
following works with a vt100 emulator on a big-screen Mac:
stty rows 60
Gnu emacs happily then uses 60 lines.  I've used this under SUN OS and
Ultrix.

Why not instead use the X server on the Explorer?  It's performance is
pretty decent on a II Plus.

Check mizar.docs.uu.se:~ftp/lispm/telnet-subnegotiations.lisp, which
not only makes the VT100 frame send the window size on request, but
also the terminal type and, if requested, the terminal location
string.
