My linux terminal is 160 x 75 :-)

This happens to the cwdaemon when tlf is started (tlf-0.9.5):

gollum:/home/rein/tlf/cwdaemon-0.7 # /usr/local/sbin/cwdaemon -n
cwdaemon: Not forking...
cwdaemon: Device used: parport0
cwdaemon: Press ^C to quit
cwdaemon: Parallel port opened
cwdaemon: Speed: 30 wpm
cwdaemon: Weight: 1
cwdaemon: PTT delay(TOD): 2 ms
cwdaemon: Tone: 800 Hz

as you see tlf does indeed set the cw speed to 30 wpm...
