When I telnet in a w shows ttypx in lieu of the usual ttyx, so I need a
test to determine which is in use. Pseudocode:
if my TTY is ttypx
set the screen size accordingly

doing things sometimes. Your way works, though it leaves LINES and ROWS
set to the old values. No problem of course. Is there some elegant test
I can do to see if I am connect to a ttyx or a ttypx I wonder? Then I

When telnetting into a remote Debian box I want to have the screen size
set automatically to 100x40 to suit my home Debian box. At the moment I
am using:
export LINES=40 COLUMNS=100
after I log in.
As I sometimes use the first box in local mode I want the screen size to
depend on how I access

I generally put something like this in login files (as well as aliasing it to

eval `resize`
stty cols $COLUMNS rows $LINES

I have .bashrc setup for remote login differences. I also have executable
scripts in my home directory to account for other differences. I usually
give them single-letter names because I am not a great typist.
