User Tip #20: Resize DOS screen on the fly

Hits: Failed to execute CGI : Win32 Error Code = 3


You are working in a command shell window (acts like DOS) and you want to resize the window. To make it wider, lets say 120 columns, use command:

mode con cols=120

To get more lines in the window, lets say make the shell display 50 lines:

mode con lines=50

It works dynamically. Give it a try. Its a kick. [OK, I'm easily impressed.]
