- This is nonsens. HP's resize checks the TERM environment variable for
- the controlcodes. Your users should set their TERM variable to 'hp' or
- 'hpterm' and of course, a terminfo entry for this terminals should
- exist on the target system.

- Please read more carefully before you respond. The resize I am looking for
- is one that will run on a non-HP system. As I said in my original request,
- HP's resize does exactly the right thing, unfortunately I do not have the
- source for it, consequently if I am sitting in front of an HP display, open
- up a local hpterm, rlogin to say a DECstation (to which I have added an
- hpterm termcap entry), and resize the window, I am stuck.
