weird...

did you try pulling up the Terminal preferences and adjusting the default window sizes? otherwise, try trashing the com.apple.terminal.plist in your library/preferences folder?

Hey, that's cool! I was just able to fix the help-view in xcode where the left side of the split-pane had become so narrow that the resize area didn't show.

I just edited the plist with Property List Editor ... thanks for the tip.

My father had the same had the same problem on his work computer.

Open the terminal, go to Terminal>Window Settings

Then under the Terminal Inspector, select the Window from the pull down menu, make it any size you want to. (the default is 80 columns, by 24 rows)

Then down at the bottom press the button that says 'Use Settings as Default.'

If that doesn't work, try trashing the .plist located in ~/Library/Prefrences
