I tested it and it worked okay.  But:

1. why using the <up> arrow key to increment the window vertical size?

2. It doesn't really take care of what border do you want to act on.

   The `resize-window' I proposed in this thread, while definitely ugly,
   moves the left border when you use the left key `l', the right border
   when you use the right key `r', etc.  It is the most usable solution
   I've tested so far.
