set Window size? #40

Not sure if this is a duplicate of: https://github.com/caerwynj/acme-sac/issues/13

But on Windows 10, I can't resize the window to fill out the entire Display size. Is there a setting parameter to define the size of the Acme application window on startup?

Issue 13 is a bit of a mess, and I think most of the issues within it were fixed long ago.

I couldn't resize the window to fill the screen in Win7. It was particularly annoying because Acme needs width, more so with the large fonts I need, and Acme-Sac wouldn't go wider than about 2/3 the screen width.

For the purposes of reproduction, I should add I had Windows set to increase font size. I forget the name of the option in Win7. I used the classic Windows theme to stop it being applied to old programs.

When I tried Acme-SAC in Win10 which has no classic theme, it rendered in a very distorted way. MS has since changed how increased text size works for old programs, but I haven't re-tested.

Start Acme.exe with arguments such as this: Acme.exe -g1600x1024 The default is 1280x1024, which you can edit in /sys/emu/port/main.c:/Xzsize See the man page for emu for more details of the command line arguments for Acme.exe. It's basically just emu.exe renamed.
