[Xastir] Window resizing

[Norm, VK3XCI]

Umm,
on my tiny e3PC 7" screen <ALT+ LEFT CLICK + Move the mouse> scrolls the 
entire screen around and allows me to find the <OK> buttons etc. Works 
in xubuntu and Xandros. You have to click in the app window the wait 
untill the arrow turns to a wee hand.

BTW, it makes a great portable Xastir/SSTV/PSK32 setup!
