Description

Description of the new feature/enhancement

I often want the Quake Mode terminal window to be different sizes, depending on what I'm doing at the time. However, the window size always resets upon closing and reopening.

There can be a setting in the config file to allow the Quake Mode window to remember its size upon opening/closing.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current Quake Mode implementation to understand how window size is managed and propose adding a persistent configuration setting to remember the size.
