How can I get a non 25x80 command window when I use the "at" command on XP?

I use "at" like this:

at 15:45 /interactive /every:M,T,W,Th,F cmd /k myjob.bat

This works great except I get a default 25x80 cmd window. What I'd like is an 80x150 window, so I can see all the stuff going by when myjob.bat runs.

I have a shortcut that already opens a cmd window of 80x150, but how do I get "at" to open it?

Thanks.

Go to Start/Run, type in `cmd` then in the command
window, type `help`.
You`ll get a list of available commands.
`Call` might be the one you need.

Run CMD, right click top bar, Properties, Layout?

Use "mode con lines=80 cols=150" in a batch file that runs the command
you showed above.
