Ok, so don't warp to the border if this is not desired. :) > >If you do this, you may add an option to all Resize commands, like > >WarpToBorder, that is respected in interactive resizes. > > Is this required? Isn't the resize function normally envoked on the > border anyway? If you mean the new option, yes, it is required. Resize may be initiated from anywhere and the current behaviour should be the default.
