WoW Classic does not yet support resizing the game window to arbitrary aspect ratios, as the new retail client does. It always matches the aspect ratio of your monitor. This small script allows setting a custom window size using the Win32 API.
Note: You only need to run the script once unless you want to change the window size again. The size will persist after restarts, but you'll need to manually reposition the window each time you launch the game.
