The Crysis Wars dedicated server, when running under wineconsole with the curses backend, does not resize its viewport. It is stuck at the default 80x25, even if the terminal is considerably larger (see attachment). This produces some unexpected output, as some commands expect a larger size but have to be split over 2 lines via \
My terminal and wineconsole interact just fine, as I have verified with cmd. It's just this app that sticks to 80x25 no matter what. On Windows, it would normally spawn a console window with a size of 132x60 (or less if the desktop resolution can't fit that)
Could it be that wineconsole first starts at 80x25 and only later resizes to terminal size? In that case, I can imagine that the app polls the size once during startup and sticks to that, thus limiting itself to 80x25.
