webbrowser-app from shell cmd line

 

Hello,

I have below a nice example how to send something to the webbrowser-app;

the question I have: is it possible to enlarge the presentation in the
window of the webbrowser-app (which one does with the two fingers) from
the command line too?

Thanks

# the server lema.rae.es only understands ISO 8859-1 coded words
# but we have to send them via the 'ubuntu-app-launch' either in ASCII
# or in UTF-8,
# so we rewrite the spanish tilded chars in ISO coding, but as %xx
# values

iso=`echo $1 | sed 's/ñ/%f1/g' |\
               sed 's/á/%e1/g' |\
               sed 's/é/%e9/g' |\
               sed 's/í/%ed/g' |\
               sed 's/ó/%f3/g' |\
               sed 's/ú/%fa/g' |\
               sed 's/ü/%fc/g'`
ubuntu-app-launch webbrowser-app "http://lema.rae.es/drae/srv/search?val=$iso";
