<p>The concept of a resizable window didn't appear until GUI
interfaces. Originally the hardware terminal had one specific size
and vi depended on the screen being that exact size. I suspect
that SVr2 was in that category, as the Sun merger of SVr4 would
have been the reason to incorporate it. So try a 24x80 window and
see if it behaves.
