Is there any way to make console2 go fullscreen? I edit settings and increase window and buffer size but when I restart settings are reset to 63 rows in window size.

I've found that the maximise button is disabled, but you can get around it by setting Run option of the executable's shortcut to Maximised.

Shortcut Settings

Better yet you can hide the window title bar in Console2's settings (Appearance > More... > Caption).

Console2 Settings

Here's the final result:

So, I've found this fork of Console2 which is amazingly better, it's called ConsoleZ:

Besides the maximization, it provides find in tabs, fullscreen mode and split tabs. Totally worth to check it out, IMHO.

EDIT

Forgot to mention, you can just download and replace the binaries, and all your configurations will be kept, as far as I've perceived.
