I am also using emacs quite heavily and I can definitely say that
resizing emacs' frame works for me on OI.
I'm happy to meet another emacs user. Of course, this problem may not
be specific to emacs. Does Mate have a default window size? Does
emacs appear in the Applications/Programming menu on your desktop,
like it does in mine? Does emacs have a blue-grey background?
So it must be your configuration that prevents the resizing.
That was my conclusion, and also my question. Maybe this behavior is
caused by something left over from the Gnome desktop. Where should I
look?
I'd check .Xresources and .Xdefaults first for any geometry settings.
Then maybe there is something beneath .config/, perhaps marco has some
geometry settings stored for emacs sessions.
It might also be your emacs configuration, check if you haven't multiple
settings and also make sure your code is really executed.
You can try this:
Enter the following line in a buffer (eg. scratch), position the cursor
at the end:
(setq default-frame-alist '((left . 0) (top . 0) (width . 80) (height .
30)))
Then press C-x X-e (eval-last-sexp) followed by C-x 5 2
(make-frame-command). This should open a new frame with the given width
and height.
Alternatively, you can change the actual frame:
(set-frame-width (selected-frame) 80)
(set-frame-height (selected-frame) 30)
and press C-x C-e (for each line).
Regards,
Andreas
