Quick menu to change terminal size
Submitted by Scott Hutton
Description
Package: gnome-core Version: 0.99.7 Severity: wishlist
IRIX's "xwsh" has a third-button menu that includes a "Size" submenu, which contains a few popular sizes for terminal windows (80x24, 132x24, 80x43, and 132x43, if memory serves). Very handy when you've just stretched your window out to view something and need to restore it to something sane, but don't have window size feedback from your window manager (or are just too lazy to try to get it back to the right size).
"xwsh" also uses an arrow cursor instead of an I-bar. I tend tp prefer an arrow. Perhaps this could be changed under the "General" preferences, as well.
Would love to see these features in gnome-terminal.
