I have just begun using AbiWord as a viewer for MIME application/msword e-mail
attachments. It seems to work well.
There is only one mystery, how to control its geometry, its size and location
on the X11 root window. It doesn't seem to use X11 resources, and no part of
its menu tree seems to address geometry preferences, but my copy of
~/.AbiSuite/AbiWord.Profile currently reads in part
<Geometry
width="875"
height="768"
posx="0"
posy="0"
flags="3"
/>
which looks promising. In fact, editing the width parameter does seem to be
effective. "Height," "posx," and "posy" seem to be completely ineffective and
I have no clue what "flags" means. Experimental changes to it seem to be
completely ineffective, except sometimes to cause AbiWord to change it back to
3. Naturally, following current standards, there seems to be no configuration
documentation at all.
Can anyone offer any insight? Any light in the darkness would be much
appreciated.
