Description Santiago Romero 2003-08-07 15:48:48 UTC
Version:           1.2.3 (using KDE 3.1.3)
Installed from:     (testing/unstable)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.1 20030722 (Debian prerelease)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.20

Currently konsole supports --vt_zx CCxLL to specify
window size (such as 80x25). I personally need a way
to specify also the exact X,Y position where the
window is created.

 I'm trying to translate:

 aterm -title "News" -g 84x40+75+11 -e slrn -n

 to

 konsole -T "News" --vt_sz 84x40 -e slrn -e

 And I can't find the way to set the (75,11), which
is the (x,y) coordinates the window will be openned at.

 Thanks a lot.

Use --geometry +75+11 
 
Coordinates are in pixels. 
 
You can also use --geometry 84x40+75+11 which will try to make the window 
84x40 pixels in size.

 Oppps, didn't know that kde apps also supported standard X args. 
 SOrry for the noise!!!
