I.e. to achieve the same effect as starting with --geometry=width x height? If not, is there any workaround for that, i.e., placing some default command line options in an environment variable? For a given window, is there any way to locally restrict the width to a certain value? I.e., say the window has width 200, but in a certain buffer I don't want to exceed the 80 signs limit. Thanks a lot. Best, Stephan
