Using 'edge' with menu applications

I've just started using the window based debugger on the SGI and ran into
some problems. In my .edgerc file I put the line:
size user 80 24
which is supposed to define the window size of the user output window.
Unfortunately, the window still comes up as the default small window.
If I remove the "80 24", then I can size the window using the initial
rubber-band window it gives. Does the "size" command want the size
in pixels or character spaces?
Second,
Is there a way to make the user output window use screen control codes?
My package uses tputs() and makes the required calls of the termcap
routines. This works fine from a "normal" wsh window but doesn't work
at all in the edge user window. I see all the control codes displayed.
