Resources & Command Line Options The -geometry = option may be abbreviated to -g =. Note: The effect of these commands is determined by the window manager which may have its own rules for window size and position on the display. The command is followed by the size and location arguments, which take the following form: widthxheight±xoffset±yoffset The values for each of the four variables are specified as numbers of pixels. A positive offset will position the left or top edge of the window a specified pixel distance from the left or top edge of the display, while a negative offset will position the right or bottom edge of the window a specified pixel distance from the right or bottom edge of the display. If any of the values are omitted, TeemTalk will use the resource manager defaults for the missing values. If no location defaults are specified by the resource manager, the user will have to position the window manually. The default size of the initial window is 800 x 500 pixels for TeemTalk with graphics support, and 640 x 400 pixels for TeemTalk without graphics, in which 80 columns by 25 lines (24 text lines and 1 status line) is displayed. Command line example: xteemx340 -g =320x240-50+75 This will cause a window 320 pixels wide and 240 pixels high to be offset 50 pixels from the left of the display and 75 pixels from the bottom of the display. It is recommended that the window size is specified using the Window Size (Columns/Lines) commands described in the next section rather than geometry. Window Size (Columns/Lines) Resource: xteemx340*defaultColumns: number of columns Command Line: -dc number of columns Resource: xteemx340*defaultLines: number of lines Command Line: -dl number of lines Default Setting: Not applicable (size defined by geometry). These commands allow the default TeemTalk window size to be defined by the number of columns and lines. The overall window size is calculated using the default font for TeemTalk unless the font is overridden by other font specifications. If the size of the window is attempted to be set by both geometry and -dc and/or -dl, then the geometry setting will be used. 25-20

Resources & Command Line Options
The
-geometry
=
option may be abbreviated to
-g =
.
Note:
The effect of these commands is determined by the window
manager which may have its own rules for window size and
position on the display.
The command is followed by the size and location arguments, which take the
following form:
widthxheight±xoffset±yoffset
The values for each of the four variables are specified as numbers of pixels. A
positive offset will position the left or top edge of the window a specified pixel
distance from the left or top edge of the display, while a negative offset will position
the right or bottom edge of the window a specified pixel distance from the right or
bottom edge of the display.
If any of the values are omitted, TeemTalk will use the resource manager defaults for
the missing values. If no location defaults are specified by the resource manager, the
user will have to position the window manually.
The default size of the initial window is 800 x 500 pixels for TeemTalk with graphics
support, and 640 x 400 pixels for TeemTalk without graphics, in which 80 columns by
25 lines (24 text lines and 1 status line) is displayed.
Command line example:
xteemx340
-g
=320x240-50+75
This will cause a window 320 pixels wide and 240 pixels high to be offset 50 pixels
from the left of the display and 75 pixels from the bottom of the display.
It is recommended that the window size is specified using the Window Size (Col-
umns/Lines) commands described in the next section rather than
geometry
.
Window Size (Columns/Lines)
Resource:
xteemx340*defaultColumns:
number of columns
Command Line:
-dc
number of columns
Resource:
xteemx340*defaultLines:
number of lines
Command Line:
-dl
number of lines
Default Setting:
Not applicable (size defined by
geometry
).
These commands allow the default TeemTalk window size to be defined by the
number of columns and lines. The overall window size is calculated using the default
font for TeemTalk unless the font is overridden by other font specifications. If the size
of the window is attempted to be set by both
geometry
and
-dc
and/or
-dl
, then the
geometry
setting will be used.
