Yes, now that you mention it, that tends to vary between shells. I should
have included them.

I don't know much about .Xdefaults (mine just has some yeahconsole
leftovers), but xterm should have a parameter to define the font (and its
size), maybe something like -fc?

As a temporary workaround, you can ctrl-rightclick anywhere in the window to
get a menu, allowing you to change the font size.

That would depend on your window manager. I use Fluxbox, so I have the
following lines in $HOME/.fluxbox/apps:

[app] (name=jackinthebox) {1}
[Deco] {NONE}
[end]

YWMMV [ Your Window Manager May Vary :^D ]

Huh, that's odd. The "windowfocus" command should do that, with "windowraise"
thrown in for good measure.

YWMMV, again?

Sounds convenient if you have one of those window managers :^)

It's probably best if I not voice my opinion on the subject (not, I suspect,
that many here would disagree with me).

Sorry for not answering earlier (holidays and all that, y'know). In any case,
thank you for your feedback; always appreciated.
