Posted: Sat May 25, 2002 11:30 pm Post subject: Can I resize xterm? |
|
|
I'm running fluxbox and when I open-up a xterm I find it a little to big: it is about W:84 x H:24 and I have to resize it manualy each time I use it.
How can I change the values (if it is posible)?
Thanks |

Edit /usr/share/fluxbox/menu
Change
Code: | xterm -fg white -bg black |
to
Code: | xterm -fg white -bg black -geometry 80x24 |
(Format for the geometry is <columns>x<rows>.)
You might want to look at the man page for xterm. It's monstrous, but if you wade through it all, you can find numerous useful options. For example, I like to set mine up as:
Code: | xterm -fg white -bg black -geometry 80x24 -sl 500 -rightbar |
That gives me the scroll bar on the right hand side, which I prefer, and gives me a LOT more history to scroll back through the output of long commands. |

I was reading an earlier post on fluxbox, and c_kuzmanic mentioned ~/.fluxbox/menu.
That would probably be a better place to edit than /usr/share/fluxbox/menu. |
