   In the xterm window that JNOS will be launched from, type 'resize'.  If 
your xterm is of the correct size, it will show 80x24.  If not, then grab 
a corner with your mouse and adjust it until is does show 80x24.

jjn at iGramp:~$ resize
COLUMNS=100;
LINES=38;
export COLUMNS LINES;

   My example above, would *NOT* work and I would have to adjust it to
80x24 for JNOS to work as JNOS *only* understands old terminals that were
24 line by 80 charachers per line (the 25th line was used by *some*
terminals to display status information or to provide 'soft' menus).
