There isn't one.
Currently, to start a gnome-terminal at a particular size, you need to
use the --geometry command line option, as in
gnome-terminal --geometry=80x40
This can be used in launchers on the desktop or panels. To globally
change the default for the terminals launched my the
/Applications/System Tools/Terminal menu, you'd need to edit the
gnome-terminal.desktop file. Finally, the default 80x24 comes from the
file GNOME_PREFIX/share/vte/termcaps/xterm, which is a termcap file.

De la observación de la irreductibilidad de las creencias últimas
he sacado la mayor lección de mi vida. Aprendí a respetar las ideas
ajenas, a detenerme ante el secreto de las conciencias, a entender
antes de discutir, a discutir antes de condenar. Y como estoy en
vena de confesiones, hago una más, quizás superflua: detesto con
toda mi alma a los fanáticos.
