• 40 Column Theme

    From Beery@21:4/109 to All on Tuesday, August 28, 2018 14:30:38
    Does anyone have a good 40 column theme that pretty much mirrors the 80
    column theme?

    I was just looking at my BBS from a 40 column perspective, and did not like
    the way it looks since some of the retro computers calling it would be
    limited to 40 columns.

    You know I would have said back in the day that it would be nice to show screens in 40 columns, in fact all of my screens and BBS prompts were setup
    to look 40/80 but at least in the Commodore world there are 80 column term programs for both the 64 and 128, the 64 has Novaterm, and the 128 has
    Desterm. I used both extensively when I had 8bit stuff.. If you get a 40
    column theme I would love to use it but I can't see myself writing one..

    have you changed the theme to 40 columns? you can adjust the # of display columns from 1 to H ???? not sure what that "H" means
    you would have to edit each menu, / Settings and change display columns to 2 (hit enter till you get to 2)
