The best I can think of is:
Key Home A CM Pick PipeRead `echo Resize $(($[cw.width]-1))p $(($[cw.height]-1))p`
Key End A CM Pick PipeRead `echo Resize $(($[cw.width]+1))p $(($[cw.height]+1))p`
Works ok for normal applications, but not for xterm or others that define
resize step other than 1. I.e. Ctrl-Alt-Home works, but not Ctrl-Alt-End.
And this only works in 2.5.x, since in 2.4 there are only $[w.width]
variables and Resize has no "frame" parameter.
If you really want to fix this, you may use
`PipeRead ... xwininfo -id $w -size ...` and parse the geometry in client
units, but this is not effective. I would write a simple module in perl.
Probably we need more expanding variables to handle this situation,
like $[w.unitwidth]. Or make Resize handle "keep+1c" syntax.
Of course, you may create separate key bindings for xterm that increment
in +-7 +-13 or similar. See also ResizeMove command.
