A new experiment

My BBS is working, other than a few minor odds and ends that I'm working on..
So I'm on to other eexperiments. I figure that if I can get all of the BBS related software working in Termux, that's a step closer to being able to
make them Android native apps.
My first try is with Syncterm. I successfully compiled it, and managed to connect to Castle Rock. However, I ran into a couple of problems.
First, the terminal screen is narrow, and cuts the BBS screen in half.
Having not used Syncterm before, and not really familiar with things, I
checked all of the screen size settings I could find, but nothing helped it.
It's odd because there is plenty of space on either side of the terminal
window to widen it.
The other issue is a strobe effect while connected to Castle Rock on the ANSI screens.
Any ideas on fixing those?
