Here is what I ended up doing. Creating a putty session with locked size.
Aso
using the vi as designed it works well. I have included the putty.defs,
putty.notes
and vi.notes.
Now everything is fine. Thanks for your help.

That’s not entirely true. The VT100 could
switch modes from 80x24 to
132x14 (the latter was pretty ugly) or with the AVO 132x24.
I recall some VMS programs in v3.2 misbehaving when run in 132x24 mode...
