Setting up the Terminal with JavaScript on OS X Yosemite

terminal.js

#!/usr/bin/env osascript -l JavaScript

function run(argv) {
  // Obtain the terminal application
  terminal = Application('Terminal');

  // Set the font
  terminal.defaultSettings.fontName = 'Source Code Pro for Powerline';
  terminal.defaultSettings.fontSize = 18;
  terminal.defaultSettings.fontAntialiasing = true;

  // Set the window size
  terminal.defaultSettings.numberOfRows = 26;
  terminal.defaultSettings.numberOfColumns = 130;

  // Set the background color
  terminal.defaultSettings.backgroundColor = {red: 0.1, green: 0.1, blue: 0.1};
}

@fgimian how did you find out the names of those settings (ie. fontName, fontSize, etc)? I am trying to figure out how to set the line-height as well from this script.

@cbracco: I'm really sorry I never got a notification about your reply. You'll need to use the Script Editor and look through the API documentation there unfortunately.
