Cmd Window/Text Size

If you have a shortcut that starts filePro, change those properties, 
save them to the shortcut and it will stick each time you open the shortcut.

I would love to be able to create a shortcut and apply the size 
automatically but I have not found a way to do that yet.  It is a manual 
process.

I do have one neat suggestion:

The bat file that is launched by the shortcut should start with a line 
that says:

title My FilePro Application

Or whatever is handy on the title line.  I put folder info, test or 
project info and it helps me keep my windows straight.
