Changing window size of Geany's execute (F5) option
Question:
I’m using Geany 0.18 for python developing and am in general really satisfied, but there is one little thing, that’s still bugging me:
I usually use the F5 (Build–>Execute) option to test my scripts, the appearing window is rather small, and if my script prints lines which are too long they are hard to read. I would like to change the default-window size of the little one popping up if I hit F5, but I haven’t found anything to accomplish this.
Is this possible at all ?
Thanks

Answers:
To solve that problem I added additional parameters to terminal command that geany runs.
- In Geany go to preferences (Edit->Preferences).
- Open Tools tab.
- There is an input field named Terminal where you can specify terminal program to use.
- I changed that to
"gnome-terminal --maximize"
to open terminal maximized.
For Gnome-Terminal you can find more window options running “gnome-terminal –help-window-options” from terminal.
In the window that pops up (if using windows) click on the white bar at the top (right click) this will open a menu, choose defaults then change font/font size etc.
