At least under ver. 21.3 you can add window frame parameters to the
make-frame function. I have this in my .emacs (for a second frame with a
non-proportional font):
(make-frame '((name . "courier")
(top . 1) (left . 1) (width . 98) (height . 17)
(visibility . icon) ; nil or icon
(font . "-outline-Courier
New-normal-r-normal-normal-*-*-96-96-c-*-iso10646-1")))
(select-frame-by-name "courier")
;;Doesn't work in 22.0. Elisp manual (29.3.3 Window Frame Parameters) says
somewhere that some optional arguments are semi-obsolete. Font is only
mentioned under color parameters.
