What were you trying to do?

	Check the zephyr man page for geometry specification information.

What's wrong:
	
	It sez:

     geometry       Primary POSITION (not size) geometry specif-
                    ier.  The geometry should be of the form
                    "{+|-}x{+|-}y", specifying an (x,y) coordi-
                    nate for a corner of the window displaying
                    the notice.  The interpretation of positive
                    and negative location specifications follows
                    the X conventions.  A special location of `c'
                    for either x or y indicates that the window
                    should be centered along that axis.  Example:
                    a geometry of "+0+c" specifies the window
                    should be at the top of the screen, centered
                    horizontally.


What should have happened:

	It should have said:

Example: a geometry of "+0+c" specifies the window should be at the left edge
of the screen, centered vertically.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
