What is the explanation behind the key combinations to enlarge and decrease font size in terminal?

To enlarge my font size in Terminal, I use CTRL SHIFT +. To decrease the font size, I hit CTRL -. Why is this not consistent ? i.e. why is SHIFT not required for decreasing the font size.

Answer

By default its actually Ctrl + and Ctrl -.

Depending on your keyboard layout you’ll need Shift to get a +, like on a US keyboard, where + is Shift =. On such a keyboard Ctrl + is actually Ctrl Shift =.
