col	Default maximum number of columns for the terminal. This must be an integer value, range 0 to 255.
ln	Default maximum number of lines for the terminal. This must be an integer value, range 0 to 255.

The number of lines has an additional limit based on a maximum of 20,000 characters per window (i.e. the maximum number of lines is 20,000/col).
