Re: Enlarging the Dos box window and font

Because I'm blind, I need to have the same text on a braille display. I
want to use a text based web browser, lynx, so I start Cygwin from
within a normal Dos window (cmd), and from there, I can start BRLTTY and
Lynx. This works perfect for me with the braille display, but to the people
who are looking at the wall, the text is a bit too small, and not so easy
to read.

Is it possible to enlarge the window and the font size within the Dos
box environment?

Thanks,

Lars


as suggested here
http://www.unixwiz.net/techtips/cmd-window.html

pressing "ALT-Spacebar" and then "P"

is it possible to change the windows cmd properties including the
font size and character.

No idea how easy could be for a blind to set them
