I might be alone in this, but the resize drives me up the wall. I've had to
go out of the way to patch rio to ignore resize updates. I suspect the
reason for this is my riostart creates a few windows by default, which end
up getting resized when I fullscreen drawterm, throwing everything out of
whack. It would be nice if you could add a command line option for this - I
started looking at this, but haven't had much time to make a proper patch.

Cheers,
