.Dt RESIZEWIN 1
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm resizewin
|
|
.Nd update the kernel window size for the current TTY
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
Query the terminal emulator window size with the
|
|
.Dv TIOCSWINSZ
|
|
ioctl and set the window size known by the kernel to the new values.
|
|
The terminal is assumed to be VT100/ANSI compatible.
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is functionally similar to
|
|
.Xr resize 1 ,
|
|
which is part of the
|
|
.Xr xterm 1
|
|
distribution.
|
|
However,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
only works with VT100/ANSI-compatible terminals and does
|
|
not emit commands to set environment variables.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
After a terminal window has been resized, running
|
|
.Nm
|
|
updates the kernel's window size to match the new size.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that virtually all modern terninals support VT100/ANSI escape
|
|
sequences, including xterm, konsole, gnome-terminal iTerm,
|
|
Terminal.app, and PuTTY.
