Hi,
I would like to change the default settings for screen buffer size and
screen width. I would like to know which cygwin variable should be used
and
the syntax to set in cygwin.bat. Could you please let me know
Thanks in advance.
If you're talking about the console you get with cmd.exe (what you get if
you
double-click on 'cygwin.bat' to start it from explorer or your desktop for
example),
then you are squarely in Windows-land, as this has nothing to do with
Cygwin
(and
as such is pretty-much off-topic for this list). But, assuming you are
using cmd.exe,
you'll want to go to the icon in the top left corner. Bring up the
context
menu by
right mouse clicking on it, select "Properties" and pick the "Layout" tab.
What you
want is there. If you want this change to be the new default for all
future
windows,
select "Defaults" instead of "Properties" above.
