I got the rc script to start charon from Tip o' the Day, (Below, since
it's short.) but I can't seem to get geometry specs to influence the
window. Unfortunately the default window size is a bit too small for
browsing.
I've started to look at rioimport. Do I have to find some
defaults and adjust them in the source, or can I enlarge
this window some other way?
Thanks.
Greg

I just resize charon's window like any other rio window.
btw, you can add "bind -c /n/local/dev/ /chan/" right before
the "riomport", so you can snarf links and use them with rio too.

Thanks for the additional tip. I'll add that.
As for the window size, there are some things that no human being
should have to do and resizing a window every time you start an
application is one of them. It's not that it's at all difficult; it's
the principle of the thing.

With tiling, the issue doesn't even come up.
