Open 'New' window with same size

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When starting a new mintty instance with the 'New' window menu command (or its 
Alt+F2 or Ctrl+Shift+N shortcuts), it might be useful for it to start with the 
same size as the window it's spawned from.

(See also issue 273.)

The following script, called e.g. dupterm, would also clone the current window, 
and its working directory (which Alt-F2 does not clone):

#! /bin/sh

#cols=`stty -a | sed -e "s,.*columns *=* *\([0-9]*\).*,\1," -e t -e d`
#rows=`stty -a | sed -e "s,.*rows *=* *\([0-9]*\).*,\1," -e t -e d`
set - `stty size`
cols=$2
rows=$1
run mintty -s $cols,$rows
