The 'term' variable tells archie what type of terminal you are using, and optionally its size in rows and columns. This information is used by the pager. The usage is: set term [<#rows> [<#columns>]] That is, the terminal type is required, but the number of rows and columns is optional. You may specify a value for rows only, but if you want to change the number of columns you must give a value for _both_ rows and columns. The default values for rows and columns are 24 and 80. Examples: set term vt100 set term xterm 60 set term xterm 24 100
