In 24.3.1, starting emacs with the "-iconic" switch causes the
main
emacs window to be sized to the width of the icon rather than
the width
specified in the X resource database. Interestingly, the
height is
still correct. Compare the window created by:
$ emacs &
with the one from:
$ emacs -iconic &
(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't
resolved
at the time.)
I tried reproducing this on Debian/bullseye with Gnome Shell,
and I
didn't see any differences in the frame sizes here, but perhaps
it's
dependent on the window manager.
Are you still seeing this problem in recent Emacs versions?
