I have found this answer providing how to manipulate the current xterm window's dimensions, ie:echo -ne \e[8;30;30tHow can I modify this to maximize the window (xterm's alt + enter shortcut)?Also, where do I find more info on these xterm command line modifiers?UPDATE:See multiple solutions below for both maximize and full screen (without title and borders)
Maximize xterm via bash script
xterm;escape characters;window management
The commands areecho -ne '\e[9;1t'to maximize andecho -ne '\e[9;0t'to restore the original size. It's described in thexterm control sequences documentation.
