How can i make the DOS based application's window large or resize but not full screen? I tried all options like screen buffer size and window size under options. Any more suggestions? Thanx Cyrus

If you change the screen resolution they will be bigger.

Sizimg a DOS window is a combination of overall screen resolution and display font chosen, and screen properties.
On a 800x600 screen 15 in monitor my DOS window fill left to right with Menu Bar at top and about 1 inch of Desktop on bottom. Font is AUTO, Program Run Maximized, Scree Usage Window

Maybe I misunderstand what you mean? The old Windows 3.1 way still works? You move the arrow to the edge of the window until it becomes a two headed small arrow. At this point you drag the window to a new size.
