I have a question regarding that "other" hypertext program, Guide.
Actually the question is probably more generic, but my application is
to Guide.

When Guide opens, the default window does not fill the entire screen.
If I adjust the window using either the grow boxes in the bottom right
or the zoom box in the upper right, and then save the document, the
change in window size is not saved and when openned the next time, the
document will once again need to be adjusted.

My question is: can I use Resedit to change the parameters for the
dimensions of the default window so that when my guide document is
openned the window will automatically fill the entire screen? I am
preparing a document for use by students on campus, some of whom may be
Mac novices, and I would like to maximize the space available for use
while minimizing the dependence on the student to resize the window.

Any help would be appreciated. I have used Resedit but am not an expert
so please give specific instructions. Thanks.
