Dear All,
Best wishes for Xmas and New Year. One of my users reports the following
for pine 3.07 running on Ultrix 4.3.
If the solution comes with 3.88, which I have installed
on another platform, please, let me know to accellerate the upgrade.
Thanks

Maria,

Pine 3.07 had a problem with setting rows but not columns or vice versa.  
Setting "stty rows 50 cols 80" should work around that.  The problem is 
fixed in the current Pine 3.89.  

Thanks for the report!
