Checking Windows Size

This gist is inspired by YASP short video below, https://www.youtube.com/shorts/2UFcAU8nTQs

The intention is to check the numbers of COLUMNS and FILES in a Bash Window Terminal

check_terminal_windows_size.sh

#!/usr/bin/env bash

shopt -s checkwinsize

# This line is intended to execute a external command in order to set up variables COLUMNS and LINES
(:)


echo "COLUMNS: $COLUMNS LINES: $LINES"
