change-screen-width and change-screen-size only logically change what MicroEMACS
knows about. You must also physically change modes on the pc. Try setting the
$sres variable to values like "CGA", "EGA", and "VGA". This should give you
some more interesting results.

	BTW  to change the screen size smaller than the physical size, use
the mouse, click down on the lower right corner, move to a new position
and release.
