Where is the frame resized after startup?

Where is the frame resized after startup?

[Lennart Borgman]

Somewhere after running the init files the initial frame is resized - at 
least on w32. I would like to add a command after that happens. Is there 
any hook that runs after all startup code has run?

Perhaps you could try on the "Starting Up Emacs" node of the Emacs
Lisp Reference...

                    /L/e/k/t/u

Thanks, I knew I had seen it somewhere ...

It turned out that there is no later hook than window-setup-hook, which 
I already tried.

However after some more testing I found that run-with-idle-timer now 
works as I expect it to do and that can be used to run code after all 
startup code has run.

And that was too quick. It depends on what my pc is doing perhaps. My 
workaround is using one of the last hooks run at startup and then doing 
something like

   (run-with-idle-time 2 nil 'what-i-want)

What do you mean by ``after all startup code has run'', exactly?

Yes, that was a bit unclear. In this case I meant "after creation and 
sizing of the first frame".

Assuming that window-setup-hook is not good for that, perhaps you can
explain why you need that hook to run after sizing of the initial
frame and no earlier.

One idea to try is inside window-setup-hook put a function into
after-make-frame-functions.  That function should do whatever you want
to do after initial frame is created, then remove itself from
after-make-frame-functions.

A very simple thing. I want to maximize the frame.

Thanks, I have done that, but it does not work for the first frame. I 
add to the hook in a defcustom.

And why is window-setup-hook not good for that?

What do you mean by ``does not work''?  Is the function called?

Also, I'm not quite clear about your usage of defcustom.  Could you
show the code?  Defcustoms have pitfalls.

Sorry, I seemed to have made some mistake while testing (probably I 
mixed some versions here). It actually works to maximize the frame in 
window-setup-hook AFAICS now.

after-make-frame-functions is not called for the first frame.

Thanks for responding. It helped me finding my mistake.
