Forcing Terminal to not resize

Hi!

Please forgive me for this, I know this isn't the place to ask this question but I bet someone here knows the answer (assuming there is one!)

We're using the mac Terminal app as a terminal emulator to access a business software package running on a server. This works amazingly well, except sometimes people grab that little resize triangle at the bottom right of the screen and move it. This obviously causes the window to resize. The problem is the terminal window is now a different size and therefore renders differently. This spawns a call to me to figure out why the window looks weird and I have to reset the Terminal window size to the proper dimensions.

It occurred to me that I might be able to modify the .term file to disable the grow box entirely, but I can't figure out the key to use in Property List Editor that makes this happen.

So my question is this: Is there a property list key that disables the grow box for an application? I'll be happy to try anything, from what I've been reading Terminal supports lots of these keys, even though some aren't documented in any way.

Any input will be appreciated!
