You can use initial-frame-alist and default-frame-alist as in: (setq initial-frame-alist '( ;=95 (font . "fontset-global") (tool-bar-lines . 0) (menu-bar-lines . 2) (border-color . "gold1") (cursor-color . "turquoise1") (mouse-color . "purple3") (foreground-color . "DarkCyan") (background-color . "antiquewhite1") (vertical-scroll-bars . right) (internal-border-width . 5) (top . 10) (left . 625) (width . 80) (height . 50) )) Of course you need to uncomment and substitute the values on the =20 first and second lines. And others too ... -- Greetings Pete To most people solutions mean finding the answers. But to chemists =20 solutions are things that are still all mixed up.
