Subject: [9fans] Opening p9p acme to a particular geometry

Ok, I'm giving up and asking.

I want to start my acme session with a particular geometry.  The -l  
dump.acme option works great for laying out my columns and guide  
file, but doesn't cover the startup geometry of the window, which  
means my Hollerith-width columns get screwed up (don't ask, local  
coding convention locked in the 90's.  1890's) and need to be re- 
adjusted each time I launch acme.

Is there a way to have it open with the "correct" geometry and screen  
placement?

Paul
