Subject: 50 line display?

Using elm & tin, my LINES=50 environment variable (under Unix) allowed me 
to see a good sized screenful of info.

Well, I'm a pine convert now, but I'm stuck with a dinky little 25-line 
display that only fills half my screen.  HELP!

To cite a recent (very recent!) post to this list:

	Got an answer.  I had to type "stty rows 42" to get the rest of the
	programs to recognize the screen size.  As far as the rest, I run
	Procomm Plus 2.01 for DOS.  I find that occasionally I have to type
	<ALT>-<U> to do a "Reset Terminal" in Procomm when Pine had set the
	terminal lines to 22 or 24.  Now all works well!

Summary:
 Try "stty rows 50" at you shell and then start Pine again from that shell.

Just tried it.  Unfortunately, "rows 50" is not accepted by stty.  At 
least not the stty on my system.  I could find no equivalent in the man 
page, either.  Perhaps I have a funky version of stty.  It claims 
"conformance with the X/Open Portability Guide Issue 3, 1989", for 
whatever that's worth!

Oh well...  I'll keep searching...
