integer
Specifies the number of rows or columns, as appropriate for the selected window and the current window configuration.
CURSOR
Selects the window where the cursor is currently positioned unless on the command line. The cursor form of WINDOW SIZE applies to that window if integer is specified. Otherwise, it redraws the configuration of windows so that the intersection of the windows is at the cursor, or if the configuration does not have a common intersection, so that the nearest border is at the cursor.
LOG
Selects the session log window.
MEMORY
Selects the Memory window.
MONITOR
Selects the monitor window.
SOURCE
Selects the source listing window.

Usage notes

  • You cannot use WINDOW SIZE if a window is zoomed or if there is only one window open.
  • Each window in any configuration has only one adjustable dimension:
    • If one or more windows are as wide as the screen:
      • The number of rows is adjustable for each window as wide as the screen
      • The number of columns is adjustable for the remaining windows
    • If one or more windows are as high as the screen:
      • The number of columns is adjustable for each window as high as the screen
      • The number of rows is adjustable for the remaining windows

Examples

  • Adjust the size of the Source window to 15 rows. 
    WINDOW SIZE 15 SOURCE;
  • Adjust the size of the window where the cursor is currently positioned to 20 rows.
