Well I think nobody wants to turn his pc into a dumb terminal, but neverteless
it would fix my problem (and maybe some more users) at the console....
But anyway it would be nice if that feature was available at XT5250 also
so that you didn't have to switch again and over again after you reach a
132-screen. This is very anoying, because the screen looks great if you
select the Huge mode font, but if you reach an 132-screen you have to
swich back to Default font manually to see the whole screen.

Greetings

Patrick
