It's hard coded in the source, you'd need to change the source and 
rebuild.

Like I said, I just isn't a type of use for which the windowing app was 
designed.

Strangely, the 82 line limit seems to be independent of how many 
characters are in each individual line.

The underlying program need that discovered the problem had about 60 
characters per line; it too stopped at 82 lines.

Not strange: the length of the buffered lines, and the number of buffered 
lines are independent settings. It's not just a setting of so many bytes 
for the entire scroll buffer.
