But if you just want to know the character bounds, write "\233 q" or "\033[ q" to the console, and read back and parse something that looks like "\2331;1;24;77 r" where the four numbers 1;1;24;77 are the row/col one-based indices of the upper right and lower left corners. Currently, the upper left is always 1;1, and the lower right varies depending on the window size (in this example 24 rows by 77 columns). - Kodiak
