Nick,

That's a good question and I'm trying to get information on that from Allen Huffman.

At one time a patch was available but when I look at the Zork game engine, there 
are several routines that write to the text screen at $400 and more routines 
that keep track of the cursor location on that screen.
I don't see any simple method to force a 40/80 screen. Actually I don't see much 
advantage to that given how the game works.
