If you need to set the geometry of the octave shell, use
xterm -geometry 75x35 -e octave
If octave is already running you can use xtermset to change the
settings of the already running xterm, eg.
octave> system("xtermset -bg black")
xtermset is a seperate program (not part of a common X11 installation).
If it did not ship with your operation system, you can fetch the sourcecode
from
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/x/xtermset/xtermset_0.5.1.orig.tar.gz
