Details:

This patch solves half the problem.  I've moved get_termcap_viewport to
src/ui/terminal/main.c, made it a handler for SIGWINCH, and done the
equivalent work in the GUI.
So now SHOW LENGTH and SHOW WIDTH will tell you how big your window is.

What's not been done, is to get the output engine to respect these values. It
only looks at them at startup.  I don't know how much effort would be involved
to allow it to dynamically reconfigure itself...
