Re: iPad and font sizes?

0 comments
Without knowing the implementation, wouldn't it be possible to scale
the terminal size to whatever size font the user has zoomed to?

So say start at a 16pt font then set the users terminal to whatever
screen real estate is available at that size. If they zoom out
(smaller font), the term size increases. Opposite for zooming in.

That way you can always have a full screen terminal open (I personally
don't care about split screen - i use screen).

I imagine vim/mutt/etc taking up the full iPad screen regardless of
orientation. That would be nice ;)

Either way it looks good. Looking forward to some updates to get
these small nits worked out.
