How to open your terminal - Size and Position YOU want

Alright, this is pretty straight forward and only for amateurs I'm sure. Nevertheless, I found that the --help documentation on terminal geometry a tad vague, so I looked around online for some better information.

Basically I'm going to show you how to modify your terminal command line to include the --geometry argument so that you can have your terminal open up at the size you want, and where you want it; everytime. Granted this is what I did for Arch Linux, I have no idea if this will transfer verbatim to other distros.

Right-click on your terminal icon, and add this to your command line:

--geometry=75x25+350+400

The first set of numbers, 75x25, is your terminal size. This corresponds directly with height and width. The first number is width, and the second is height. Get the dimensions you want, then move on to location below.

Once you get your general size, go ahead and play around with the position of the window. If you're like me, you don't like your terminal to always open at the upper left of your desktop. +0+0 is the default setting, hence upper left corner. Bare in mind that this number does not correspond with pixel counts. The upper left corner of my terminal opens roughly in the center of my desktop, with coordinates of +350+400. Once again, it seems you have to simply play around with the numbers until you get a configuration to your liking.

Easy stuff, but great info if you didn't already know it :).
