Description Ben LaHaise 2001-12-15 18:51:00 UTC

xchat does not have an option to set geometry.  This makes it difficult 
to layout windows automatically from .xinitrc.  See xterm's -geometry 
option for how to get this right (so that -geometry +0+0 works properly 
with twm).

IMHO, this is something the upstream maintainers should handle.
It's more of a lack of feature than a bug IMHO.

You can set the geometry for xchat in it's config file, or via
the "Settings -> Setup -> Main Window" in the UI.
