It seems if one is to include a geometry default in one's .Xresources for
Xscreensaver, the menu's geometry will be set to the same size, unless set
otherwise.  I have discovered the *menu.geometry variable to work fine
for changing the geometry, however, this does not insure that when the menu
is brought up, it still fits on the screen.  Specifically, my xscreensaver
is nearly flush to the bottom of my screen; activating the menu causes the
last several lines to be lost.  (I have a geometry setting of 223x147 for
the menu, 64x64 for the xscreensaver window itself.)

Any suggestions as to how I can insure that the menu remains completely
on the screen?  ("Any suggestions..." == "Is it possible to...")

Thanks...
