Well, FriCAS respects standard X11 geometry parameter, that is

FriCAS.hyperdoc.Geometry: 600x500

will give you 600x500 window.  There is also

FriCAS.hyperdoc.FormGeometry

parameter, I am not sure when this one is used.  And there are
font/color parameters documented in Chapter 3.8 of FriCAS book.

BTW: Anybody using screen with 4K resolution should be prepared
to give resonable parameters to programs.  And unfortunetely,
good large fonts for such screen are nonstandard, so user must
know which fonts to use.

BTW2: There are folks that have huge monitors and good sight.
They use high resolution modes to cram a lot of windows on
the screen.  So it is really for user to decide how big the
window should be and what font size to use.
