Does Carbon support X resources? If so, you could specify those frame
parameters in your ~/.Xdefaults file:
emacs.geometry: 148x54+230+10
Or you could specify the geometry on the command line:
emacs --geometry=148x54+230+10
emacs --xrm=emacs.geometry:148x54+230+10

Hello,
I'm using Carbon Emacs 21.3.50.1. I have the lines
(setq default-frame-alist '((width . 148)
(height . 54)))
(setq initial-frame-alist '((top . 10)
(left . 230)))
in my .emacs, which make a nice big Emacs frame on the right side of
the screen... eventually. As Emacs starts up, the frame appears first
on the left side of the screen, then it shrinks a little, then it
shrinks some more, then it finally goes to the position and dimensions
I specified. What I would like to know is where those other
position/dimensions are specified, and whether I can change them. I'm
trying to eliminate all of that jumping around of the frame.
Thanks for any help,
Matt
