I'm trying to use dosbox debugger, but it's unusable because the terminal window is messed up. I compiled dosbox with --enable-debug=heavy on Linux (Debian Etch) and the terminal looks something like this after I press alt-pause:

1    150000: VGA:h total 100 end0128blank 012898) retrace (85/97)       0596

How do I fix this?

Never mind. I looked at debug_gui.cpp and there's a line "resizeterm(50,81);". I guess that is supposed to adjust the terminal size to 81x50 characters automatically, but I have to do it manually. Then the debugger output is fine.
