Hey Thomas,

It didnt take too long to discover `xdotool` is *the* tool for the job.
I've written a script around it that mostly does the job.  Since it doesn't
contain fluxbox-specific script, I'd reckon it would work just as well (or
badly) with any other window manager.

I've put it up here for anyone interested
 https://github.com/rohit-h/window-resizer/blob/master/resizer.sh

Do report bugs/improvements. I'm interested to see what use cases others
might have.


Cheers​!

Rohit​
