Hi guys,

Please allow us to specify the height and width of the Factorio window (when in windowed mode) via either the config file or command-line parameters (I'm not even talking about a GUI setting - that would be excessive at this stage).
Currently my game starts at 1280x720 and I need to stretch it to manually to about 1680x1050, which gets tedious (I need to restart the game quite often).

Thanks!

P.S.
I don't want to use 3rd party software to achieve this (...it seems like a pretty standard setting to have).

there is a 3rd party free tools like Autosizer that do that things (resize windows)

The fact that there are tools out there to do this, doesn't diminish from the validity of the feature request.
