Emacs 22 is "in pretest" for 3 years now but it's still beeing developped. I would not wait on it. You can work with an older version if you don't miss any of the new features, but you can also use a current CVS snapshot (22.0.98.1) and recompile it yourself like me. > And to get it full screen I just give: + x So it is not a > very big problem, more a little anouiance. ;-} Try to use "-g AxB+C+D" command line parameter. A is the desired width in characters, B is the desired height in characters, C is the x-offset of the topleft corner in pixels, D is the y-offset of the topleft corner in pixels. This should always work, even under Windows. Another method is to have some Lisp statements at the end of your .emacs like these: let ( (maxcols 150) (maxrows 68) ) (set-frame-position (selected-frame) 700 100) (set-frame-size (selected-frame) maxcols maxrows) This makes every emacs instance start on the same position with the same size.
