Ubuntu MATE 24.04.3 (non-WSL). Tried executing from within the editor - nothing. So then I tried with the -e option from the command line - nothing.
Hmm, maybe this is important. Within the editor, I went into the Options menu, Change Display Size. All 3 preset sizes - 25x80, 43x80, 50x80 - are grayed out. All the Extended Modes are also grayed out, When I tried any of the Max Lines, Max Columns, Max Lines/Cols [25x80], or Custom Lines/Cols [25x80], which are *not* grayed out, none of those did anything.
So, to me it appears not that the macro you provided does not work, but rather that changing the display size does not work at all in Linux TSE.
