14. Frame Geometry

14.1. In Lucid Emacs 19.6 I did (set-screen-width characters) and (set-screen-height lines) in my `.emacs' instead of specifying `Emacs*EmacsScreen.geometry' in my `.Xdefaults' but this does not work in XE

macs 19.13.

These two functions now take frame arguments:

(set-frame-width (selected-frame) characters)   
(set-frame-height (selected-frame) lines)

14.2. In XEmacs 19.11 I specified `Emacs*EmacsScreen.geometry' in my `.emacs' but this does not work in XEmacs 19.13.

We have switched from using the term 'screen' to using the term 'frame'. The correct entry for your `.Xdefaults' is now:

Emacs*EmacsFrame.geometry
