Yes. I just found the way to do this about a half-hour ago playing around first
with dcop and then kdcop. It took me a while because I was watching the
wrong konqueror window for effects to appear! :-)
 
I got interested in resizing windows since I visit the same websites regularly, 
and some sites display properly only with a very wide window, while others 
use only a narrow window. I would like to open these websites automatically 
with a window of the needed size so I don't have to keep manually resizing 
the konqueror window.

I really think a mailing list devoted to dcop would be useful in propagating the 
use of this powerful interface to kde applications. A dcop mailing list would 
probably also encourage developers to incorporate dcop into applications 
they develop.
