Look for the 'default size' line in textwin.cfg, ie.
#
# default size <width> <height>
#   specify the dimensions of the next window to be created.
#   These dimensions are limited to the terminal dimensions.
#   [Default: 80 25]
#
Try increasing the width to eg. 100 and the height to 27 (allowing for
the borders).  It works for me!

At the risk of straying off-thread, is there anyone here who might mail
me a complete list of VT102 escape sequences?  I sometimes get screen
garbage running lynx via telnet (rsl.ox.ac.uk) and would be interested
to rehack VT102.C (if necessary).  I haven't tried the BigVT102 emul
knowingly, on the grounds that lynx believes it is talking to a VT100.
Or is the command set of a 102 less smaller than the 100?
