- Open ~/.config/Terminal/terminalrc in your favorite editor
- Modify the line starting with MiscDefaultGeometry. For example:
MiscDefaultGeometry=160x60+120+120
which sets the window to 160 characters wide and 60 characters high with the top left corner at 120 pixels to the right and down from the top left corner of the screen.
