It would be an even better idea to have all programmers test for the
screen size if they open a screen or a window. There are just *too many*
programs (from the American side of the Atlantic) that plainly ignore
the fact that my Workbench screen is 672 * 266 pixels, and insist on
opening screens of 640 * 200, or that limit their window sizes to that.
