We have used the following method to get programs to work in a window that has
been re-sized.  Once you have re-sized the window type the following commands:

	eval `resize`
	tset
This has seemed to work for those people who have wanted to re-size their
windows.  I agree that there should be a more seamless/transparent way for
the applications to determine that re-sizing has occured without the user having
to do anything.
