Subject: Initial frame geometry in w32 gnu emacs
Date: Wed, 25 May 2005 18:37:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <119a34ka8aac350@corp.supernews.com> (raw)


Hello emacs help newsgroup:

I am using GNU Emacs 21.3.1 (i386-mingw) on a laptop under MS Win 2000.
According to the docs, launching under X with the --geometry argument
(along with suitable parameters) will size and position the initial
frame on the screen. Can the same thing be accomplished by adding code
to the .emacs? Is there a file similar to .Xdefaults in the w32
environment? If not, is it possible to modify the default behavior (80
column by 40 line frame positioned in the upper left corner) by editing
an elisp file somewhere?

Thanks,

Ed
