      Sugar-Emulator Screen Size Adjustment

    * In Terminal:

          |sugar-emulator -i 600x500| (fits the screen for a 10" Netbook
          as a window) 
          |sugar-emulator -f| (Full Screen) 

    * Help for sugar-emulator

          |sugar-emulator --help| 

    * Modify the menu item Applications->Education->Sugar

          Use 'Main Menu' utility (alacarte) or edit a separate launcher 

         1. [right click]->[add launcher to desktop]
         2. right click on icon on desktop
         3. Properties, Command:/usr/bin/sugar-emulator *-i 832x624*
         4. Close

    * Now a smaller Xephyr window will launch
          o 832x624 matches the XO display proportions (Pages in Browse
            will mimic the layout of those on an XO.)
