Thanks for the suggestion. It does seem to fix one problem, but creates
another. I like the default positioning provided for new frames. I
don't want to make all frames show up on top of each other.
I don't see the reason why this should happen. It seems to respect the
'left' value but not 'top'.
I do not set anything in the default-frame-alist except for the font.
The alist is initialized the way it is because of other functions I
call. The width and height are the values coming from the command
line.
I only mentioned it because somebody else had a similar problem.
I checked the NEWS file after I found this, but it seems to say that
the position values are used for the initial frame.
At first I thought it was a bug, but since it works from shell, there
is something else at play.
