If you want to run xdosemu fullscreen, use ctrl-alt-F.  If you would
like to change the size of the window, unfortunately it seems to be tied
to the size of the vga font that is used; I don't know of any way to
configure that offhand.

Try the "X_font" entry in dosemu.conf. There are a couple of alternate fonts
in the 'etc' directory of the source package, along with scripts to install
them. It is also possible, sometimes, to find other fonts which have all the
IBM graphics in them.

I'm running MS-DOS 6.22 in dosemu version 1.0.2.1 on Debian. When I start 
up xdosemu, I get a window 6X4 inches in size. I can't figure out how to 
resize the window. The normal Linux/KDE window resizing handles aren't 
active on the window. And I've tried $_X_mode13fact in dosemu.conf, but 
nothing changes the window size. Can someone please show me how to do this?

Thanks
