[Trlog] Display question

I think I know what is happening, but no fix off the top of my head.  Your
new monitor is 16:10 (or 16:9) screen ratio (wide screen) while your TR
screen is still 4:3 (or much more square) like your old monitor probably
was.  The sides expand to fill the screen as does the top and bottom, but
since it is a more square shaped screen, the top extends off the top.  Doubt
any DOS video drivers for wide screens, but probably some other method.  I
can't say I have contested in a while and use TR in dual boot under Win 98
instead of native DOS.  /Dan KI6X

For the last 10 years or so (probably more), I have used a dual boot drive
on my computer to be able to run TRlog in native DOS. This past weekend, I
finally upgraded my monitor to a nice 23'' wide screen. Great under Windows,
but I now loose the top line or two when I run TR in DOS (I no longer see
the contest name and remaining memory, and the next line below that). I'm
sure that there is some statement I can invoke to size the screen, but I am
at a loss to figure it out. Does anyone have a solution (assuming one
exists). Thanks.....
