Subject: 23.2; wish: emacsclient -c -g GEOMETRY
Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2011 23:19:21 +0100

Dear developers, of The One Editor, 

Currently I can start emacs in X with -g 116x43-0-0 to make it
fullscreen (on my tiny screen). With emacsclient I can't do the same. 

Wish: emacsclient -c should take a -g GEOMETRY argument, so I can use it
for swiftly starting X with emacsclient as sole frame for the times when
I need graphics. 

Best wishes, 
Arne Babenhauserheide

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 :)

Best wishes, 
Arne

Can't the --eval argument be used for this?

It only gets evaluated after the frame is created. 

This is possible, though: 

emacsclient -e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 40))" \
-e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width . 120))" ; emacsclient -c

It litters the alist with new definitions, but it works. 

Alternately put it in .bashrc: 

emacsclient -e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 30))" \
-e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width . 55))"

Then the setting only affects the given computer and I can use the .emacs.d 
unchanged.

But different from -g GEOMETRY it affects later frames, too :(

I then can’t call emacsclient with default settings without setting these 
default settings. 

To pseudo-only set it once: 

emacsclient -e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 40))" \
-e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width . 120))" ; emacsclient -c \
-e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(height . 40))" \
-e "(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(width . 80))"

But that is kinda clumsy compared to emacsclient -g 120x40… 

Best wishes, 
Arne

How about the patch in

http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=5864

would that work for you?

Yes, this looks like what I need: One-shot setting of frame parameters.

Would it be OK to add some example usages to the man-page, like fullscreen or 
frame-name?

Any chance of getting it included in the VCS soon? 

Best wishes, 
Arne
