And/or perhaps that's a problem in Emacs itself. On a different topic -- there are some nice ways to customize the way Emacs displays frame titles (which appear in the window title bar). Here's what I used: (setq frame-title-format '("%b (%t:" mode-name minor-mode-alist ")")) (setq icon-title-format '("Emacs")) That creates a title that looks roughly like the mode bar at the bottom of the Emacs window, with a few things omitted and the layout changed slightly. Unfortunately, the "icon-title-format" only controls the initial icon; after you open the window, the frame title overrides it. (Windows restriction?) Finally... there's a weirdness with frame sizes. If I specify an initial frame height using -geometry in the runemacs line, the line count is the total frame height including the minibuffer. The same appears to be true for the "initial-frame-parameters" variable. But for "default-frame-parameters", it is the text window height not counting the minibuffers, so it's off by 3. And if I start emacs by invoking gnuclient (without arguments) then the height from initial-frame-parameters is used as the height NOT including the minibuffer size. Very confusing... paul
