While compounding the offense of triply replying to myself, here
follows a simple patch for beta2 which allows the TEXTAREA to be
configurably sized.  The main reason for this is so you can
configure the TEXTAREA to be 80 cols or more wide so that messages
will display as they will read (unline-wrapped).

I've also submitted this patch to the SourceForge Patch Manager.
