   That's not what happens here.   
      
   For example if I open an eCS command prompt window, it opens in maximized   
   state at the position    
   where all initially maximized VIO windows open and its size is 80x25. If I   
   execute mode 100 50, the    
   upper left corner stays in place, the window grows to 100x50, and there no   
   scroll bars. If I then    
   click the restore button, the window cahges to restored state but the size and   
   location stay the    
   same. If I then execute e d:\config.sys, then exit from e, the command window   
   reappears where it was    
   before the command, is still in restored state and the size is 100x50 with no   
   scroll bars.
