stop resizing after toolbar and menubar off

stop resizing after toolbar and menubar off

[Tim]

Hi,

I'm turning off my menubar and toolbar and have been for a while using:

(menu-bar-mode 0)
(tool-bar-mode 0)

But, I've just started to use speedbar too :) Now, the problem is I'm 
starting up speedbar at the end of my .emacs file which starts speedbar 
ok, but with one little annoyance...

When speedbar starts it sizes itself the same height as the main frame, 
but, the menu and tool bars don't remove themselves until after .emacs 
has been completed, which is after the speedbar has sized itself.

This leaves the speedbar longer than the height of the main window :(

Anyone any ideas how I can fix/work around this?

Thanks,

Tim

Use X resources for removing menu bar and tool bar.

Perfect! Thank you! (btw, the above caused an lisp error here!?, but 
searched within info and found it though :).

Cheers,

The info node has been renamed in Emacs 22 (CVS).  In Emacs 21 it is
(info "(emacs)Resources X").

Bye, Reiner.
