   Hi All,   
      
   I have a cosmetic issue when starting gedwin.exe when the screen is set to 80    
   columns. The resultant "buf" for part of the startup screen is too big for 80    
   columns so it shows as blank (my golded.h is a bit fancy). :( Though the    
   startup of Golded is so fast one seldom sees the startup screen, it IS still    
   wrong in my case {chuckle}.   
      
   I have modified my version of gedinit.cpp to fix this if anyone is interested?    
   I am not a C programmer (I do assembly and power basic) but I think I got it    
   close to what is expected for C++. I can send the modified file or attempt to    
   fork, mod & request a pull using github (never did that either lol).   
      
   It has been extensively tested, works fine and doesn't break anything. I used a   
       
   waitkey() to temporarily pause and verify the startup screen :)
