Re: cygwin terminal question

2007-07-06 Thread Jan Moesen

e.g. I can only see the last 200 lines in my terminal.
If you are talking about the default console window (e.g. bash), you can 
change its properties in the window's system menu. Click on the icon in 
the title bar, choose Properties, go to the Layout tab and change the 
screen buffer size.


Hope that helps,

Jan!

If you're talking about rxvt or xterm, etc, then pass the appropriate
command line parameter when invoking, or set it in .Xdefaults..


rxvt -sl 2500 = scroll length 2500
or add to .Xdefaults = Rxvt.saveLines: 2500


xterm -sl 2500
or .Xdefaults = Xterm.savelines: 2500

Thanks,
I manage to fix the layout problem but can't find the .xdefaults file.
If you can point me to the location of the file or a good tutorial on this
subject, please let me know.

Thx again,
pp

Re: cygwin terminal question

2007-07-06 Thread Reid Thompson
in your home directory do:

$ vi .Xdefaults

add the lines and write and quit.


http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2001-q2/msg01954/.Xdefaults

The man pages for xterm and rxvt list .Xdefaults values available
also...
