Having a fixed size would give more stability to the interface (the buttons would not suddenly disappear from under the mouse when executing code from a code editor).

If I understand correctly, the initial size should be was is currently the maximum size. This shouldn't be difficult to change, but I won't be able to get to it until next week.

The first time codeBoot is used the console should be a certain reasonable size, say 4 lines tall (all blank) plus the line where commands are entered. The first commands added to the transcript should be immediately above the line where commands are entered. The user can resize the console by dragging the bottom of the console.

The main point is that the location of code editors and their buttons do not move when there is stuff being added to the transcript (for example, loading a file).
