Start as maximized?

Start as maximized?

[William Payne]

Hello, I am using a CVS version of Emacs (checked out from savannah
recently) under Windows. Can I have it automatically start as maximized?

Thanks for any replies

             ...
  (w32-send-sys-command ?\xf031)
  (w32-send-sys-command ?\xf032)
  (w32-send-sys-command ?\xf033)
  (w32-send-sys-command ?\xf034)
             ...

   thank you in advance,
                                                        gb

Hi,
Sorry, I have no idea, I got this trick from this group maybe some
time ago. Hopefully some expert will answer which other tasks can be
done.

The doc string of w32-send-sys-command says it sends a WM_SYSCOMMAND
Windows message, so the documentation for WM_SYSCOMMAND on MSDN would
be a good place to start, though for the actual values, you'd
probably have to look in the mingw header files.

The useful values are listed in the w32-send-sys-command doc string.

bingo! it's in winuser.h

#define SC_MAXIMIZE 0xF030

that's only in an emacs built for windows, i think...

thank you,
