In my experience, if you set the geometry in the initial-frame-alist
the intitial window resizes to that setting.
This takes a bit of doing.
I have a helper function:
;;; useful function for modifying alists like default-frame-alist
(defun modify-alist (alist changes)
"In ALIST, modify or add entries in changes, returning new alist"
(let (next)
(while changes
(setq next (car changes) changes (cdr changes))
(setq alist (append (delq (assoc (car next) alist) alist) (list next))))
alist))
and then do things like:
(setq default-frame-alist
(modify-alist default-frame-alist
'((height . 44) (width . 81)
(left . 510)(top . 30)
(mouse-color . "white")))
initial-frame-alist
(modify-alist initial-frame-alist
'((left . 0)(top . 0))
)))
to get my configuration as I like it.
I actually test for which window system and how I got started and have
different versions.
