Hi,

i hope i got the terms correctly used.  Emacs opens
a rectangular array on the screen that the operating system
calls "window" and emacs calls "frame".

How can i save the settings for emacs, so that the size of
the frame stays the same whenever i start emacs/xemacs?

I use emacs-21.2 on windows and xemacs-21.4 on linux.


Thanks for any hints,
Torsten.

Don't know about XEmacs, but for Emacs you should look up
`default-frame-alist' in the docs and use it like this in your .emacs
init file (untested!):

  (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 36))
  (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width . 95))
