I'm not actually running XWEM at the moment, so I can't test, but I'm
pretty sure you can adjust the size of the frames interactively with
your mouse (same as you'd expect of other WM's).

As to why it is not setting the correct dimensions from the beginning,
I'm not sure.  Do you have anything in your ~/.xemacs/init.el that sets
width/height of your default frame?  That might be interfering.  For
example, are you setting `initial-frame-plist' or `default-frame-plist'?
If you are, don't.

Hopefully Evgeny (XWEM author) will comment and give you better
solutions/help than I can.  I haven't heard from Evgeny in quite a
while, I think he's been hit with a big fat dose of "real life" that has
taken him away from his hacking time. :-)
