    How To Execute In Full-Screen, Maximized, etc?

    Is there a library function that can be used to set the default console size for a program?
    Code:
    int main(void){srand(time(0));for(double l=rand(),l0=0,l00=0;;l0+=0.1){for(double l000=0;l000
    <1;l000+=.001,l+=((double)rand()/RAND_MAX)/0x64,l00+=((sin(l*0x8*atan(l0)*l000-(l0*0x8*atan
    (l)))*0.5)+0.5)){l00-=floor(l00);for(size_t l0000=0,l00000=(size_t)(0x50*(l00));l0000<l00000;++l0000
    )putchar(0x20);putchar(0x61+(int)((double)rand()/RAND_MAX*0x1a));putchar('\n');}}return 0;}

    The easiest way that I've found of have full control of how a console looks is using CreateProcess(), from another program and filling the STARTUPINFO struct with the desired values (you can set the exact screen size for the console like a windows app).

    Alternatively, you can set the size using SetConsoleScreenBufferSize() and SetConsoleWindowInfo().
