Hi,

I start emacsclient with:

emacscliet -t -a "" -F ""((hi . hello))

But when I do:
(frame-parameter nil 'hi) inside the newly created frame, I got nil.


Regards

Does it work with -c?

I assume it's because only actual frame parameters can be set with -F.
One would have to check the sources of emacsclient…

You can set directly lisp variables:

   emacsclient -t -a "" -e '(setf shiyao-hi (quote hello))'
