"resize" doesn't seem to work for Handshake (at least for the version of
Handshake I have.)  It seems to expect an xterm response and misinterprets
Handshake's response, setting the number of lines and columns to 1.  Not
very pleasant.

I don't know if this is because xterm's reply is different from of a VT100,
or if "resize" uses an xterm-private, non-VT100 sequence.  In any case,
it won't work for Handshake in VT52 emulation mode.
