I had it up to 167x56 with no crash. Can you tell the terminal size with
the program below?
2:37 fidonet{at}blizzard [~/src/termsize]cat termsize.c
#include
#include
int main(void)
{
int cols, rows;
initscr();
cols = COLS;
rows = LINES;
endwin();
printf("Terminal size was %d x %d (cols x rows).\n", cols, rows);
return 0;
}
2:37 fidonet{at}blizzard [~/src/termsize]cat Makefile
termsize: termsize.c
gcc -W -Wall -o termsize termsize.c -lcurses -s
It may be possible that Msged crashes when cols or rows > 127 (or maybe > 255).
I wouldn't have thought anybody would try running it in a window much
larger than, say, 130 x 40. Quoted lines in messages will never go beyond
about 75 characters.
I use a 100 x 38 shell (full screen) on a 17" monitor. My eyesight
isn't great. 8-)
