   I am confused.   Full screen is the entire screen, not a little pane.
   The panes are windows.

   If the window is too small, you can adjust it.  Right click on the
   bar at the top.  This time, instead of selecting "edit" select
   "properties".   When you do, a properties sheet opens up.  In that
   properties sheet, there is a tab labeled "font".  Click on it and
   select a font size.   I use size 24 TT Lucida Console.  A bigger
   number makes the window larger, a smaller number makes it smaller.

   While you are there, you might look at some of the other properties
   that you can modify.

   When you are done, you can click on OK and either change the current
   window only, or change the properties for all other windows you open
   with the same name in the future.

   Full screen means "nothing but BlueWave on the screen, no windows".
   ALT-ENTER toggles back and forth between a window and full screen,
   i.e. hit it once to get a window, hit it again to get back to full
   screen.
