- : (using 8x14 or 14x8 fonts). I would like these windows to open to their
- : maximum size but I haven't found a way to set the window size (you know,
- : something like 8*80x14*25). Thanks for the help.

- In the Font menu, use Save to preserve your font size.
- When you next bring up the window, size it to maximum by dragging the
- sides with the mouse, and while holding down the shift key. Do this
- instead of hitting the maximize button.
- Lastly, you'll need to set up a macro that any new shell will run, whose
- sole purpose is to execute a MODE command (eg. MODE CO80,54) to actually
- make a larger than default window.
-
- You can put the name of the macro to be run riight into your config.sys
- in the definition of the interpreter "...cmd.exe /c OS2Init.cmd" and it
- will always be run. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
