Project Oberon 2013 is designed for a 1024x768 display, so that's what
the emulator provides by default. If you have a wider screen, the
emulator will add black bars to keep the aspect ratio correct.

The --size option sets a different resolution. This needs special
Display and Input modules, as the standard ones can only handle
1024x768. You can find the source code in the Mods directory. They're
also installed on the included disk image.

Full screen can be toggled with F11.
