Not really bash, more X11 and XFCE4, but an info nugget nonetheless: To place and size an xfce4-terminal use xfce4-settings-editor. Then look in the xfce4-terminal channel, and edit misc-default-geometry to CxL+px+py. Where C is the width in columns, L is the height in lines. And then be careful if you add placement hints. +px (literal "+" plus sign) is the pixel offset counting from the left +py is the pixel offset counting from the top. -px (literal "-" minus sign) is the pixel offset counting...
