  12. It's my understanding that there is are undocumented, DEC private, escape
  13. sequences which allow a host to change the number of rows and columns in
  14. the terminal display.
  15.  
  16. This sequence probably came about as a result of terminal emulators which,
  17. given the graphic display devices they ran on, could support greater than
  18. normal terminal screen sizes.
  19.  
  20. If anyone knows what these sequences are, please feel free to email them
  21. to me.

  23. Cheers!
