How can I, as I did in a previous DOS system, run WordStar and dBase/FoxPro in a 60 row by 132 column format?
New system is XP SP3 with an Nvidia/GeForce 8400GS video card and a ViewSonic VXX2262 1050x1680 pixel display. I can run a cmd.exe box, get a C:\ window and prompt, and set the window to 60x132 characters. Can enter a fake command of 132 characters and repeat it down the screen showing that XP's cmd.exe can support 60x132 characters.
However, when I call WordStar 6.0 or FoxPro-DOS, each set to 60x132 characters, the cmd.exe window instantly changes to 50 x 80 characters and WS or dBase run in the top 30x80 characters.
Will DOSBox help me operate at 60x132?, and/or I'll pay a consulting fee for a solution.
Separate: what is BBcode?
Thank You.
