Terminal Display Size? (Characters Wide Lines High)

[Brian Black]

Hi,
    sorry if this question is asked often on the list, i have not found 
any answers.  after install of the system the terminal displays 80 or so 
characters wide on the screen.  I now have a wide screen display,  What 
tool can be used to change the number of characters wide and the number 
of lines high the terminal will display?

The monitor is apple 23" wide screen, currently running fbsd 5.2.1

p.s.
    Is there also a way to have this new setting to be the default 
terminal display for all virtual terminals also (i.e. alt+F2 ...).

thanks

Brian
