Subject: bug#27923: 24.3; -iconic switch screws up geometry
Date: Wed, 02 Aug 2017 13:41:38 -0700

In 24.3.1, starting emacs with the "-iconic" switch causes the main
emacs window to be sized to the width of the icon rather than the width
specified in the X resource database.  Interestingly, the height is
still correct.  Compare the window created by:

    $ emacs &

with the one from:

    $ emacs -iconic &

On my system, the output for "xrdb -query | grep -i emacs" is:

gnuemacs.geometry:      80x78+1180+0
Emacs.Font:     -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal-*-15-*-100-100-*-*-ISO8859-1
gnuemacs*cursorColor:   red
lemacs*cursorColor:     red

(I realize that some of these entries are obsolete...)

An undocumented program is as useless as a non-working one.
