   Isn't alt-enter the same thing as right clicking on the upper left   
   corner?     I think so, so yes, it remembers.   Hmmm.  I haven't checked   
   if it remembers after you close Windows and restart, and my computer   
   failed last Sunday, and I'm on another one with no bat files yet.   So I   
   can't check.   But changing the width doesn't take much time and it   
   woudl be worth it to me to have the wider page even if I have to do it   
   each windows session.   Plus the scroll bar I like, and I used, even   
   though one can only scroll back a couple hundred lines.   
      
    Although the scroll bar actually covers up 2 or 3 characters if a line   
   is that long. and there might not be a left-right scroll bar. .
