Gameboy screen?

This doesn't really have anything to do with potabilizing or anything, I just have a question. I read that the original Gameboy (The fat one) had a screen resolution of 160x144. There is currently a beta Gameboy Emulator for a graphing calculator. The calc has a resolution of 160x100 so part of the screen is missing! Then I read that the Gameboy Pocket had a resolution of 140x102. I wanted to help by figuring out a crunch feature for the emulator, so that all of the picture fits on the screen. So the brainbuster I have for you is does any one know how the Gameboy Pocket scales Gameboy games onto its smaller screen? Any help would be great!

Yea I know it shrinks the image. I'm wondering exactly HOW it does it, programming wise?
