I have learned how to drag and enlarge the xdosemu window but I don't 
like the look of the fonts.

When I use the default font in .dosemurc, both xterm and konsole (KDE) 
will re-size.

However, I prefer in .xdosrmurc to specify the
$_X_font = "vga12x30"
which is a large 11" wide x 8.5" high font.
The window apparently gets fixed by the size of the font.

My only remaining problem is that I cannot get colors in the directory 
listing - just had to throw that off thread statement in.
