  I really like to work in 132x30 text mode, and I was glad EMACS supported
it. But the mouse... The idiot driver still thinks screen width is 80, so
weirdest things happen when I move the mouse up'n'down. Actually, I am not
able to exit emacs (could not find the key sequence for the 1st time:). Now:
is there a mouse driver smart enough to function right in non-standard text
modes? Anyway, I tried the following hack: wrote a simple program which just
updated horizontal and vertical limits and turned the mouse cursor on (all
those std int 33h calls). Damn, still no good. So is there any hope to edit
in 132x30 text mode and still have mouse functionality?

Thanks for any advice.

Martynas
