    HRESULT WINAPI ResizePseudoConsole(_In_ HPCON hPC, _In_ COORD size);

If Microsoft is in the mood to fix old problems, right ^there you've got another old problem: its bizarre API that is different to everything else. Designed that way to lock everyone into their OS.

In 2018 nobody has the time to learn this. Just use a cross-platform API and if it doesn't run on Windows then just don't run Windows.

As a developer, using Windows for development is against your own best interest. If you like to be treated as a dog that is not allowed inside the house, use Windows.

What cross-platform API would that be? ioctl(tty_fd, TIOCSWINSZ, &size); ? How does the user get the TTY FD? open("/dev/tty0")? Or should they implement SYSV compatibility and use "/dev/vt0"? Or perhaps follow FreeBSD, which has "/dev/ttyv0"?

Honestly, learning Windows is just like learning another programming language. This API is designed to be the Windows equivalent of a unix API - of course it's not going to be the exact same thing, but functionally it does the same thing.
