The problem is that your values are incorrect.  You are asking for a
window 200 pixels wide (thats okay) by 300 high (not okay).
The (non-interlaced) Workbench screen is 640x200.  Use
WINDOW=000,000,640,200 for a full screen (640x200) window.
If you put in NotePad's ToolType, it will be the default.
If you put it in the text file's ToolType, it will be the default
_for that text file_.
