cunning swift
on bash shopt -s checkwinsize is supposed to "reflow" the layout of a tui application, for instance, htop, if the font size changes or the window is resized.
I checked with $ shopt but it says checkwinsize is on.
maybe I'm looking in the wrong place, maybe nowadays checkwinsize needs something else to be effective, since I set this ages ago on my old install but it was another linux distro... maybe I'm misremembering stuff. 
pls halp
