The scary thing is that in 2014 we still have to occasionally think & worry about such things. I, too, run into the odd TUI/CLI that doesn't pick up a resize properly, for whatever non-deterministic reason. Sad.
Well, at least there's still a use for that archaic terminal knowledge we learned 25-35 years ago.
