Introducing Pockemu: A really basic Pocket Computer Emulator for ComputerCraft computers.

What it does
Pockemu will create a screen with the size of a Pocket Computer and make the program think it's a pocket computer, although as a Pocket Computer's screen is one pixel taller the height of the virtual screen will be the height of the computer's screen.

Screenies
Spoiler

Usage: Pockemu <program name>

Download: pastebin get dwXNaWrV pockemu

This is useful in survival mode so that you can test a program without wasting resources to make a pocket computer.Nice job! :)

if only everyone's first program was as useful as this
I really like this. It's useful because not everyone wants to transfer their files to a pocket computer to make sure everything is cool with smaller screen sizes, especially because if you do GUIs the right way they will adjust themselves proportional to your screen size.
One bug I found is that it still registers a screen click outside of the pocket computer's normal area. This can cause crashes on programs.
My suggestion to make this program better is to have an indicator at the edge so you can see the size you're working with.

OK thanks, when I get time with Computercraft I'll update it. :)

I finally got around to updating it, the pastebin link is the same.
