Is it possible to lock the console size?

I have a program that runs entirely in a console windows. All input and output happens within that console window. Is it possible to prevent a user from resizing that window? It appears that the $RESIZE:OFF metacommand does not work with the console window.

$Resize has no effect in the console at all, as you've noticed.

You may want to use the Width command in your main loop - won't prevent your user from resizing, but will restore back to what you wish to impose.

Zach may have an API call for that.

Thanks. I do size the windows initially, but I shell some commands that can take 10+ minutes so it would be awkward to have to wait that long for the check of the size again.
