hey, i'm doing some php, and the only way to do it is by telnetting in to the server from an nt box (i am using vi to write). as you probably know, the telnet window is extremely small. Is there any way to maximize it or change size so I can see more of my code at once? ray

Try this:

From the telnet window go to Terminal > preferences > fonts and choose a font with the sizing you like. d3funct

The software required `Windows 95 or better', so I installed Linux.

 
I recommend a better telnet client than the standard Windows clunker. Try SecureCRT by It even lets you see ANSI color for file type highlighting, etc..., it supports copying and pasting, and besides running plain old telnet, it runs SSH. (if you actually want your server to be secure, turn off telnetd )

Also, you can run Xwindows applications remotely on your NT box with X-WinPro, by With these, you no longer feel like you are working with boxing gloves on ;)
