.TH RESIZE 1 "Release 5" "X Version 11"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
resize \- utility to set TERMCAP and terminal settings to current window size
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B resize
|
|
[-u] [\-s [row col]]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.I Resize
|
|
prints a shell command for setting the TERM and TERMCAP environment variables
|
|
to indicate the current size of \fIxterm\fP window from which the command
|
|
is run. For this output to take effect, \fIresize\fP must either be evaluated
|
|
as part of the command line (usually done with a shell alias or function) or
|
|
else redirected to a file which can then be read in. From the C shell (usually
|
|
known as \fI/bin/csh\fP), the following alias could be defined in the
|
|
user's \fI.cshrc\fP:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.nf
|
|
% alias rs 'set noglob; `eval resize`'
|
|
.fi
|
|
.sp
|
|
After resizing the window, the user would type:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.nf
|
|
% rs
|
|
.fi
|
|
.sp
|
|
Users of versions of the Bourne shell (usually known as \fI/bin/sh\fP) that
|
|
don't have command
|
|
functions will need to send the output to a temporary file and the read it back
|
|
in with the ``.'' command:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.nf
|
|
$ resize >/tmp/out
|
|
$ . /tmp/out
|
|
.fi
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
The following options may be used with \fIresize\fP:
|
|
.TP 8
|
|
.B \-u
|
|
This option indicates that Bourne shell commands should be generated even if
|
|
the user's current shell isn't \fI/bin/sh\fP.
|
|
.TP 8
|
|
.B \-c
|
|
This option indicates that C shell commands should be generated even if the
|
|
user's current shell isn't \fI/bin/csh\fP.
|
|
.TP 8
|
|
.B \-s \fR[\fIrows columns\fP]
|
|
This option indicates that that Sun console escape sequences will be used
|
|
instead of the special \fIxterm\fP escape code. If \fIrows\fP and
|
|
\fIcolumns\fP are given, \fIresize\fP will ask the \fIxterm\fP to resize
|
|
itself. However, the window manager may choose to disallow the change.
|
|
.SH FILES
|
|
/etc/termcap for the base termcap entry to modify.
|
|
.br
|
|
~/.cshrc user's alias for the command.
|
|

.SH BUGS
|
|
The \fI-u\fP or \fI-c\fP must appear to the left of \fI-s\fP if both are
|
|
specified.
|
|
.PP
|
|
There should be some global notion of display size; termcap and
|
|
terminfo need to be rethought in the context of window systems.
