Boy, I'm rusty.  I haven't tried to do anything with C in years, and at 
best the last time I touched any C code I was a rank amateur.

But, after some brief hacking I've managed to tweak TIN so that it 
displays subject longer than screen width on the bottom two lines of the 
screen instead of just the bottom line.  For extremely long subjects, 
there still might be some truncation, but it doubles the room available 
for displaying the subject, which helps with viewing groups were long 
subjects are the norm.
