It's my understanding that there is are undocumented, DEC private, escape
sequences which allow a host to change the number of rows and columns in
the terminal display.

This sequence probably came about as a result of terminal emulators which,
given the graphic display devices they ran on, could support greater than
normal terminal screen sizes.

If anyone knows what these sequences are, please feel free to email them
to me.

Cheers!
