Marti, The DOS console lets you specify the font,
including its size and color. and you can
specify the size of the window, in columns and rows.
Console2, a better "DOS Console",
runs CMD.EXE in the background, like a daemond.
Console2 works well with Unicode,
provided you tell -both- the default DOS console
and Console2 to use the "DejaVu Sans Mono" font.
Japanese glyphs work too,
despite the fact that DejaVu doesn't have them.
But you must change Windows' Registry first:
; ReBoot to effect any change to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE".
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Console\TrueTypeFont]
"0"="DejaVu Sans Mono"
Also, "7z.EXE" ( like Zip.EXE ) works well with Unicode.
With every invocation of CMD, "Init-CMD.BAT" runs; to wit:
> @chcp 65001
> @prompt $P$_$g
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]
"autorun"="C:\\__\\_Source\\Init-CMD.BAT"
Console2's settings are stored in "Console.XML",
which I edit by hand, using Visual Studio 2013,
my text editor; like this:
... rows="115" columns="143" ...
font name="DejaVu Sans Mono" size="14"
bold="0" italic="0" smoothing="2"
color use="1" r="222" g="111" b="111"
http://jeff-relf.me/Console.XML.TXT
These settings are for my 185 dpi ( set to 144 dpi )
4K/UHD monitor.
