Yep, I'd changed that in 0.9.3, because the font-and-window zoom didn't work well when the window hit the screen edges, and it was inconsistent with how other programs such as editors or web browsers deal with font size changes. > Is the old behavior still available, > using some other key combination? No, although enhancement issue 233 asks for Ctrl+Shift+plus/minus/zero to do this again. Meanwhile, you could follow the font size change with Alt+F10 to restore the default number of rows and columns. > Is there a workaround using command-line options?

It can also be specified on the command line, e.g. '-o FontHeight=11'.
