rxvt -e 'bash -l -i' + use of $LINES & $COLUMNS in .profile

I just want to put this in the archives. To use $LINES and/or $COLUMNS in the ~/.profile script one has to be aware that there is a slight delay before they're actually available. The delay is something like 200ms (P2/450), maybe less, but very much noticeable if one uses $LINES/$COLUMNS early.
