Subj : Dynamic screen resizing

The last few days I've seen a couple oversized ANSI artworks posted on
Facebook: one 160 chars wide, and the other 200 chars wide.

That got me thinking. A bigger canvas lets you create more detailed graphics,
which sure would be nice to use in BBS interfaces or games. It's already
possible to do that, I know, but it requires that users configure their
terminal prior to connecting to the BBS. Not many would do that.

So could there be (or is there) a way for a JS app on the BBS to signal to
SyncTerm to resize itself to larger dimensions? Like when you play a PC game,
and it changes the screen resolution by itself, and then resets once you quit.
