Fighting with an issue here at work - wanted to put it out to the
combined masses for help.
We have a legacy app, running in curses-type mode, fixed at 80x24.
For operational reasons, we want to run it under X, and it needs to be
in a context where it can display BIG5 Chinese text. Unfortunately,
we also need it to be fullscreen...
At the moment, we're running it in mlterm, which does a decent job of
the internationalising part - although there are some issues with
escape codes which I think may be related to wide characters being
used - but is lousy at the fullscreen side of things. Unfortunately,
there's an aspect ratio mismatch between a 4:3 monitor and an 80x24
terminal window.
Any advice? Anyone know of any terminal emulators which can do
fullscreen, scaling as necessary?
Cheers
Richard
