'rows' and 'cols' are valid modes in most BSD-like UNIX systems I've come 
across, i.e. Ultrix, SunOS, etc.  To REALLY get > 25 rows, there usually is a
program called 'resize' which sets a variable in your TERMCAP environment
variable: (from man page on /etc/termcap)
     li     num         Number of lines on screen or page.
This is a sample entry from termcap for vt100:
d0|vt100|vt100-am|dec vt100:\
	:cr=^M:do=^J:nl=^J:bl=^G:co#80:li#24:cl=50\E[;H\E[2J:\
				       ^^^^^
        :le=^H:bs:am:cm=5\E[%i%d;%dH:nd=2\E[C:up=2\E[A:\
        ... (left out)
'resize' will automatically set li for you, providing the terminal supports
the program....  I've gotten WinQVT to support > 25 lines with this program
WinQVT definitely supports it.

	Hope this helps,
