How to change size of Terminal window during a tmate session (Linux)?



Hello,



I am connecting from a client to a server over tmate (Linux)



Terminal



On the client side the Terminal window is full of small dots and a message in the bottom corner says "size 40 x 10 from a smaller client". Is there a way to resize the window so that it looks normal without all of these dots and so I can use the whole screen?



Vesa



Update: I need a solution that works without X

  • If you have installed, wmctrl can resize a window or make it fullscreen.

  • I think it requires X or something, right? wmctrl -l gives error message "cannot open display". (I do not have X and cannot install it on these machines).
