Make busybox vi behave nicely with terminals that get resized.
+config FEATURE_VI_ASK_TERMINAL
+ bool "Use 'tell me cursor position' ESC sequence to measure window"

+ depends on VI
+ help
+ If terminal size can't be retrieved and $LINES/$COLUMNS are not set,
+ this option makes vi perform a last-ditch effort to find it:
+ vi positions cursor to 999,999 and asks terminal to report real
+ cursor position using "ESC [ 6 n" escape sequence, then reads stdin.
+
+ This is not clean but helps a lot on serial lines and such.
