No big deal, Stuart, as long as you've redefined your TERM environment
variable, and made a corresponding /etc/termcap entry. In my case, I
ususally run in 80x25 mode as "ansic" -- ansi terminal with color
capabilities.
So when I want to use vidi to get 43 line mode, I reset TERM to be
"ansic43", which in /etc/termcap, shows:
ansic43:li#43:tc=ansic

I also find that I can only get two of these 43-liners running in SCO 2.3
before I run up against the same limit you found. Somewhere, SCO set some
limit, and I wish I knew where it was.
