I'm assuming he's referring to Mystic's terminal server as well as the config. But these have ANSI screens, which are limited to 80x25 unless some XBIN is used. So unless you change the font size to make it bigger, you're still going to have 80x25.

Maybe they're looking for a 1024x760 style terminal server or config? 

Regards,
Nick
