adapt pippy examples to screen dimensions, dev.laptop.org #9260

Adjust all the examples to work for different screen dimensions, and
briefly fix formatting or style in some of the other code examples.

Yet to be done:

1.  slideshow, it finds no objects in journal with MIME type
image/jpeg, and as a result does not show any slides,

2.  xolympics, it tests an object location against physics world
coordinates to determine winning condition.
