I thought that was rows and cols for the variable names to do this, but
could be wrong.

Subject: Increase console size regardless of screen size
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
