'man X' (thats's a capital X) explains, in inordinate detail, how
geometries and other settings work. Also, you can look around on your
system for 'xdefaults' (vim has one on mine) and Xdefaults (emacs has one
of those). You can also find lots of information on the internet via
search engines that will explain things in far less detail than the
nampages.
At least, that's how I've always done mine, when I have done mine.
