When I give a lecture or a speech, I use to display some text to the
listeners. I create simple HTML pages, that I display on a projector.
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
