Good idea on the 132 column screen but remember then anyone that uses it
must change the 5250 emulator to 132 character width from the default of
80 as well. While I routinely set that up, many (most?) folks do not.

Honestly, I've never understood why any emulator doesn't have 132-column support enabled by default. It's been available on all but the cheapest physical terminals for well over a quarter century, and I've never heard of its availability causing a problem with applications that don't specifically use it.
