I am too impatient to enlarge, start Golded, rinse, repeat to find the limit
where things break...

BUT

On my 26-50" screens full screen terminals will break golded starting, period,

THere is a patch:
https://fidonet.ozzmosis.com/echomail.php/gol...

The patch below fixes a bug where a very wide terminal causes GoldED to crash:

----------  Fri 21 Nov 14, GoldED+/BSD 1.1.5-b20130910 (Nov 16 2014 22:19:02)

Which does let wide terminals work... I've done it to all the ones of recent...
 and works.

BUT

ONLY FOR READING

If you reply the internal editor barfs and seg faults... for probably similar
reasons... but I just don't have time to dig through to find its buffer to
enlarge it.
