In .Xresources
emacs.geometry:80x64+1440
In .emacs
(setq default-frame-alist '((width . 80) (height . 64)))
(setq initial-frame-alist '((top . 1) (left . 1) (width . 80) (height . 64)))
After startup of emacs these values are:
initial-frame-alist is a variable defined in `frame.el'.
Its value is
((top . 1)
(left . 1)
(width . 80)
(height . 64))
default-frame-alist is a variable defined in `C source code'.
Its value is
((menu-bar-lines . 1)
(tool-bar-lines . 0)
(vertical-scroll-bars)
(width . 80)
(height . 64))
Still the window is 80 x 59

C-x 5 2 Gives a frame of size 80 x 53
I use .Xresources
