Good evening,
I know there have already been questions like this on the forum... but well... I’d like to insist!!
I wanted to know how to open a MS DOS window (or cmd...) in full screen
by activating a batch command at the beginning of the code lines.
Of course, without using Alt+Enter or resorting to regedit or any other manipulations to perform beforehand!!!
Basically, I would like the full-screen display to happen "automatically"...! ;)
Thanks in advance..!

Hello,
It's true that the question is a month old, but who knows? Maybe you still haven't found the answer...
Vista can offer a full-screen cmd window. I found this method a long time ago on an English language site, but unfortunately, I can't give you the link because I had saved the content of the article in a text file back then.
As for the method, it's simple:
1 - open a normal cmd console 'run --> cmd'
2 - type in the command line: wmic
3 - click on the 'maximize' symbol of the cmd window (it should normally take up the entire screen)
4 - right-click on the title bar of the cmd window -- properties and make your adjustments.
5 - type exit to leave the wmic console
6 - type exit again to leave the cmd console
Normally, from that point on, when you return to the cmd window, you can resize it however you want.
Handy for anyone who uses a lot of ssh or telnet on Vista.
A+++
