But it is irritating, isn't it, that the commands to change the window size are
so different on these two devices?

Couldn't RSI put a bit more consistency in? If we need back-compatibility, just
allow set_res for windows in addition to xsize and ysize.

Try the set_resolution keyword of the device command.

Humm, more resolution. Try this:

Set_Plot, 'Z'
Device, Set_Resolution=[700,500]
