Subject: | Re: [ANN] Size: a console resizer for Win9x |

Thanks to Mike Dipperstein and Stephan Mueller for pointing out a few bugs and adding some extra capabilities. I've updated the console resizer program available at http://cygutils.netpedia.net/. There are a few obvious, user-visible changes: 1) yet another name change. consize. 'nuff said. 2) you can now resize the buffer smaller than the current window. This will also resize the window. I don't know *why* you'd want to do this, but now you can. 3) Extra debugging info available when using the -d option, and it explicitly checks the Windows calls for success/failure and prints "informative" messages about errors. --Chuck "Charles S.
