Johnathan,

Thanks. I see the initial-frame-alist and default-frame-alist variables,
too, but changing values in them makes no difference.

I have a few lines in ~/.emacs.d/init.el that date from the mid-1990s. I can
probably rename the file or delete it since the emacs version then was much
different.

Thanks,

Rich
