Message-ID: <570@lyman.pppl.gov> Date: 21 Aug 90 21:34:54 GMT Reply-To: Karney@Princeton.EDU Lines: 9 I want to specify the SIZE of my xload windows in .Xdefaults via, e.g., XLoad*geometry: 94x94 while the LOCATION I want specified via the command line, e.g., xload -geo -100-0 & Unfortunately the size specification in .Xdefaults is then ignored. It seems that geometry is overloaded. There should be separate ways of specifying the size and location. Comments? Any ideas for how to do what I want?
