Hi all,
I recently read about a change to frame parameter syntax in Emacs 25,
specifically one solution to Bug#21415
(https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=21415), which introduced
this syntax:
(width . (text-pixels . <width>))
(height . (text-pixels . <height>))
to specify a pixel width and height in frame parameter commands.
Other than not finding the syntax documented in the Emacs or Elisp
manuals, this seems to work well.
However, I like to use Xresources to specify the size of my initial
Emacs frame – typically by setting a character width x height with
something like:
"Emacs.geometry" = 200x50;
in my local org.gnu.emacs.plist file.
Can I do something similar to specify a pixel width x height for my
initial Emacs frame? If so, how?
Note that the property list key-value pairs used on macOS seem to
closely align with the documented Xresource class-resource pairs, so a
solution on any platform would point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
