Displaying C compiled .ex programs in a window

I have some programs written with edita and saved with the .ex extension.
When run from edita or by clicking on the file name they run in a DOS window
of limited size.  However when compiled with EC.EXE and Watcom the resulting
.exe
file runs in full screen (black) mode, and the lettering is huge!

1. Is it possible to code something to restrict the size of the wiwdow after
compiling?
2. Is it possible to change the properties (size and colour) of the DOS window
from
within a .ex program (bk_color() only changes written text)?

I refer to text mode with Windows XP

I,m not sure that DOS window is the correct term, but its the one opened by
Euphoria .ex programs and puts(1, ) or print(1, ).

Thanks in advence for any feedback,
