You do this by including the -f argument to mcenv.

Here is an example that creates 4 frames each of size 600x800:

...
...
cd $MCDATA
mcenv -f 4@600x800 << EOF
 ...
EOF

mcenv takes a number of flags: -f, -e, -g, and -i.  You can get more
information on the use of mcenv online using the McIDAS HELP command:

help.k mcenv
