Subject: | bug#37564: [PATCH] don't export LINES and COLUMNS env vars in term to fix ncurses applications |

PS for an example of the effect, one can use some of the programs in the ncurses-examples from https://invisible-island.net/ncurses/ncurses-examples.html eg "worm". If I run it in an xfce4-terminal, then maximise the terminal, the worms spread over the whole screen. If I "export LINES" and COLUMNS beforehand, then the worms don't expand beyond the original terminal size. The same effect is visible in Emacs's M-x term with and without the LINES/COLUMNS variables.
