Hi

regarding autostart, I sometimes wants to run some of my HW testing 
programs that will display results on the screen.
But as the text is long, it expects the screen to be 80 columns (ie, the 
desktop is in med res)

At the moment, autostart will provide a default desktop.inf set to low 
res = 40 columns ; do you think it could be possible to add an option to 
choose the autostart resolution (low or med) ?

Note that if hatari starts in high res (-m switch), there's nothing to 
change as only high res / 80 columns is possible. Same for VDI.
