RESIZE(1)                                                         RESIZE(1)





 NAME
      resize - reset shell parameters to reflect the current size of a
      window

 SYNOPSIS
      resize [-c | -u] [-h | -x | -s [row col]]

 DESCRIPTION
      Resize prints on its standard output the commands for setting $TERM,
      $LINES, and $COLUMNS for a shell to reflect the current size of its
      window.  The $SHELL environment variable is used to determine the
      shell for which to form the commands.  The $TERM environment variable
      is used to determine the escape sequences to be used to determine the
      window size.  Both of these can be overridden by command line options.

      Resize is never executed directly, but should be run via eval(1)
      similar to tset(1) to cause the shell to execute the commands.  For
      example, the following functions will reset the environment of the
      current shell for sh(1) and ksh(1):

           xs() { eval `resize`; }
           xrs()     { eval `resize -s $@`; }

      An equivalent for csh(1) is:

           alias xs  'set noglob; eval `resize`'
           alias xrs 'set noglob; eval `resize -s \!\*`'


 OPTIONS
      The resize program accepts the following options listed below:

      -c      This option indicates that resize should format its commands
              for csh(1).

      -u      This option indicates that resize should format its commands
              for sh(1) or ksh(1).

      -h      This option indicates that resize should use Hewlett Packard
              terminal escape sequences to obtain the terminal's new window
              size.

      -x      This option indicates that resize should use VT102 escape
              sequences to obtain the terminal's new window size.

      -s [row col]
              This option indicates that resize should use Sun escape
              sequences to obtain the terminal's new window size.  In this
              mode of operation, a new row and column size may be specified
              on the command line.

 FILES
      $HOME/.profile sh(1) and ksh(1) user's functions for resize.
      $HOME/.cshrc        csh(1) user's alias for resize.

 NOTES
      ``-s'' must be the last option on the command line when specified.

      There should be some global notion of display size; termcap and
      terminfo need to be rethought in the context of window systems.
