Subject: [comp.emacs] new frame geometry
Date: Tue, 15 Nov 2005 21:37:05 GMT	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2wtj9h9ri.fsf@west_f1.net> (raw)



I specify emacs' geometry in ~/.Xdefaults.  But using gnome (2.6) I
*think* (or misunderstand) it or its wm are screwing things up because for
one thing I have to specifically load ~/.Xdefaults when I start a session
so that my initial emacs has the geometry I want.

The problem is using emacs' "new frame" and getting a position/size that
isn't at all what's in ~/.Xdefaults (and I don't set geo in ~/.emacs so I
don't know where this wierd geo is coming from).

I know I can set geo in ~/.emacs and maybe/probably the new frames would
have the correct geo; but if I want to continue doing it the way I already
am, can someone tell me how/if I can set "new frame"-only geo in ~/.emacs?

Mike
