Terminal impossibly small

[benwa02]

My terminal app is like 15x15 pixels. I cannot maximize it nor resize it with the bottom right tab thingy.

What the heck can I do to fix this?

Its impossible to do anything in the terminal now and I have no clue how this happened just launched it one day and voila, nice and small.

Odd...what happens if you go to Window --> Zoom?

...or Terminal -> Window Settings... -> Window and set some new Dimensions?

Try clicking on Terminal and select Window Services. Then select Window and see if the rows and columns is correct - although I can't personally change it to anything less than 10 columns and 5 rows. (Edit: like Mitthrawnuruodo said)

Also, try moving your Library/Preferences/com.apple.Terminal.plist and relaunching.

That is the best thing I have seen all day. It will be trumped in about 5 minutes when the new girl I am dating gets here!

Window Zoom just moves the terminal to a different x,y location from the original location....no help.

Changing the window dimensions does not help either.

Also moving that preference so a new one will be created does not work either.


would like this fixed...

you are the man. that was it.

took font management too far i guess, would have thought the app would have asked for a missing font like all the other apps do.

thanks a ton.
