title: How can I change the width of a Windows console window?
body: <p>Is it possible to programmatically, or otherwise, increase the width of the Windows console window? Or do I need to create a wrapper program that looks and acts like the console somehow? Are there any programs around that do this already? I use Cygwin extensively in my development, and it seems a little ridiculous to me that all console windows in Windows are width limited.</p>
  
  <p>If it matters at all, I'm running Windows XP.</p>
