using fidopoll? If i run a terminal, it makes the screen size jump around and
its hard to read using mis window.
Maybe add a command line switch?

What version of Windows are you using? It shouldn't be moving the window
around your screen at all. What it does is resize the window while it runs if
the window is larger than the screen output. At least on my Windows 10 it
doesn't move.

MIS status window always runs in 80x25, so if you want it bigger you need to
increase your font size. It should resize the terminal for you so it all fits,
but maybe its broken on the Pi or the Pi desktop has terminal resizing disabled
by default.
Users of the actual BBS can use up to 160x60 terminal size but thats not larger
text its just more of it.

Eventually I will allow the MIS screen to be skinned for larger screen sizes,
but the server status screen is stuck at 80x25 for now.
The BBS itself when you are logged in as a user can adapt to your screen size
(up to 160x60). I was actually planning to add a new 132x36 default theme in
A47.

Fidopoll still works in A46 its removed in A47. MIS in A47 has all of the
options of fidopoll including the killbusy option.
It also gives addition information as to what busy files it finds (if any) in
A47.
