I'm not sure how important is compatibility here: I always thought of this variable as an internal one used to communicate between the C and Elisp part of the frame management code. > But changing the frame creation method is perhaps not the best way to > approach this particular problem: if a Lisp package really does need > to do window-system specific frame initialization, then I think it > should simply hook into after-make-frame-functions, like this: Sounds right. As long as this is used early enough that modifying the size/position/etc... does not cause any user-visible resizing/repositioning/... Stefan
