change-font-size

Set the font's width and height.

Under Windows, this command supplements the set-font command by providing additional font choices. Some Windows fonts include a variety of character cell widths for a given character cell height. (For example, many of the font selections available in windowed DOS sessions use multiple widths.) Commands like set-font utilize the standard Windows font dialog, which doesn't provide any way to select these alternate widths. This command lets you choose these fonts.

The change-font-size command doesn't change the font name, or toggle bold or italic. You'll need to use the set-font command to do that.

Instead, change-font-size lets you interactively adjust the height and width of the current font using the arrow keys. You can abort to restore the old font settings, or press <Enter> or <Space> to keep them. This is a handy way to shrink or expand the font size. A width or height of 0 means use a suitable default.

Given a numeric argument, the command instead changes the font size by the specified amount, without further user interaction.
