Question: Can I get 132 column display with Multiplan?

Response: 132 column mode is not one of the install options for Multiplan, so it is not specifically supported. However, 132 columns can be obtained if the graphics card you are using is able to support 132 columns in text mode and can be set into that mode using escape sequences. Assuming this, you should be able to set up Multiplan to take advantage of the 132 columns by using the “Define your own Terminal” install option. Microsoft does not provide support for setting up a system with “Define Your Own Terminal.” You will have to obtain the answers to the questions that “Define Your Own Terminal” asks through your card manuals and/or the card manufacturer.
