Please help: someone here needs to view 130 columns on the wordprocessing
screen at once.  She can do it with the right minicomputer and its software,
but now she has to do it on a PC.

1. Is this possible, with DOS and the screen memory laid out the way it is?
(I doubt it, but maybe.)

2. Is there some screen driver/hardware combination available that will do this?
There's a board distributed thru Progressive Micro Dist called Tseng Labs
"UltraPAK" (132 col mono graphics, serial, parallel, C/C): will it do the
trick?
