I saw this documented somewhere ... *once* ...  It works for me, even when
I'm using FANSI-Console, but I never found any particular use for it.

Microemacs (the one that's at about version 3.10) can be compiled to
take advantage of this mode, but the result isn't all that readable on a
CGA monitor.  I suppose that sufficiently un-clever software could use
the full screen, as long as it acts as though it's writing to a line
printer.

Personally I think that feature is one of those charming idiosyncracies
of the z-158 that will eventually just disappear from the universe because
it's too oddball.  (Sort of like the entire z-100, a real nice machine
that is doomed to eventual oblivion.)  I'm dreaming of a cheapo VGA upgrade,
or else of a Sun SPARCstation with GTX card.
