Set number of lines and columns of CmdPrompt from script?

[pstein]

Can I somehow set the numer of lines and columns from within a batch script (in Win7).

As far as I know there is (was) a command similar to "mode" or "con".
Does this command only exist under WinXP? How is the syntax?

Maybe there is an additional third party progrma for this.

I know of no other command to mode, but I will provide the syntax for it:

Code: Select all

mode con cols=(however many columns you want)

and:

Code: Select all

mode con cols=(however many columns you want) lines=(however many lines you want)

This will activate immediately.
