While we are on this, another J6 feature I'd like to port is some kind of
tiling.

In J6 and earlier, this was important because each edit session was a
separate window, and it would be common to have several J windows open.
Tiling was one way to manage this.

In J8, there are nearly always only two windows, Term and Edit, so there is
not the same need as before. However, I occasionally want to tile so the
two windows fill the screen, either horizontally or vertically. This is
particularly useful when giving presentations, so only J needs to be shown.
The original state should be remembered so they can be tiled and untiled.

The question is what are the appropriate commands, and should this be fine
tuned so that, for example, you could give Term 40% of the screen and Edit
the rest?
