Hi all ! 

As this regards the "zsh" which works for me on WinNT 
but fails for others on Win2k:

I run the "zsh" using a shortcut from the desktop, and this includes 
the property settings "window size: 80 (columns) x 50 (lines)" 
and "buffer size: 80 x 100" (the vertical scrollbar at the right). 

So all I can say is that the "zsh" can deal with a buffer that has 
more lines than the window, and that it is not limited to the standard 
25 lines.
