A hack to get a similar effect (though not the same: I have to fork my .emacs.d for devices with different screen sizes because I customize in ~/.emacs.d/.emacs): (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 24)) (add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width . 80)) Easier: (1) C-h v default-frame-alist RET (2) select customize. (3) experiment until you find the correct width and height :) → http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/FrameSize Best wishes, Arne
