Re: Emacs application window resizes everytime I start

[n179911 <n179911@gmail.com>]

I have added these to my .Xresources. I don't care about matching the
color , I just want the emacs window does not resize everytime I
resize the window.
emacs.geometry:                             81x71-68+0
emacs.font:         9x15
emacs.menu.font:    9x15

This is my .emacs about setting my font:
; theme
(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/scheung/bin/elisp/color-theme-6.6.0")
(load-file "/home/scheung/bin/elisp/color-theme-almost-monokai.el")
(require 'color-theme)
(eval-after-load "color-theme"
 '(progn
    (color-theme-initialize)
    (color-theme-almost-monokai)))
(custom-set-faces
  ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
  ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
  ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
 '(default ((t (:inherit nil :stipple nil :background "#000000"
:foreground "#F8F8F2" :inverse-video nil :box nil :strike-through nil
:overline nil :underline nil :slant normal :weight normal :height 90
:width normal :foundry "unknown" :family "Droid Sans Mono"))))
