Edward,
The behavior that I see under fink is that when executing...
relax --gui
...the main relax window frame fills the entire screen but only about
1000x600 pixels are rendered in the upper left hand corner. If I click
on the green maximize button once, the window is reduced back to
1000x600 pixels which entirely fills the window frame. If I click the
green maximize button a second time, the window frame returns back to
the initial state of filling the whole screen but the entire window
frame is now properly rendered. For now, I would be happy just to find
a hack which would cause the standard startup of relax --gui to default
to the 1000x600 window size without resorting to --debug. I'm not sure
we really want huge relax windows opening up by default.
