I have the following in .Xresources:
*geometry: +10-10
I start exmh this way:
nice +6 exmh -geometry 508x736+100+70 &
however, it prioritizes the xresource over the command line and and
gives an error:
tkerror failed to handle background error.
Original error: no more colors left in colormap; changing screen's color model to monochrome
Error in tkerror: invalid command name: "tkerror"
bad geometry "+10-10": expected widthxheight
[1] Exit 1 exmh -geometry 508x736+100+70
I also have the same problem with starting xstapler:
nice +14 xstapler -geometry -20+20 &
[1] 20266
