Package: nethack-x11
Version: 3.4.3-12.2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When I open a new xnethack game on a laptop with 1366 x 768 resolution,
the window is vertically maximized, and the dungeon map section is
shrunken so that moving the character up and down on the map makes
the map to scroll. Therefore, in this layout, it is not possible to see
the entire map at once.

I am able to resize the upper message history section for every game, so
that the map doesn't need to scroll, but not every user will know about
this capability.

I tried to set the font size manually at game launch using something
like this:

NETHACKOPTIONS=font_size_messages:s,windowtype:x11 nethack

or

NETHACKOPTIONS=font_size_messages:8,windowtype:x11 nethack

.... inspired by:

http://nethack.wikia.com/wiki/Options

but I couldn't get nethack to change font size.

It would be nice if the default font was smaller. I know that
nethack-x11 uses a good font size for my screen resolution on Trisquel
5.0, an Ubuntu 11.04 derivative.

Thank you,
-Andrew
