Increase console size regardless of screen size

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Howdy,
I am blind, and don't even have a screen connected to this computer. For some reason, my console size is 30 lines and 80 columns. I've not seen this small of a console before. they usually have 50+ lines and over 100 columns.

I have searched for quite a while, but not found anything about increasing the console size. I did find a python script that will set the screen to the actual size, but it returns 30 80 as well, so no luck there either. One site said you  could just export the lines and columns you want, but that failed, even though the variables were set correctly.

Is there any way to set the lines and columns regardless of the size your computer believes the screen to be?
Thanks for any help,
Storm

Well I asked my old pappy why he called his brew White lightnin' stead of mountain dew, I took a little sip and right away I knew. And my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue, lightnin' started flashin' thunder started crashin, (whew white lightnin).
