How can I launch emacsclient maximized from the commandline
emacsclient, maximize, maximize-window
Solution
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(fullscreen . fullboth))
in .emacs does the job.
Problem
I am wonder how to start emacsclient in a new maximized frame. ``` emacsclient -c ``` starts a new frame but the man page indicated no way to maximize this frame. There are no such options as `--maximized`. Warning : this is no a duplicate from the post : How do I provide a command-line option to emacsclient?. Indeed, the answers of this post don't fix my issue. They use the `-F` option which seems to be documented on the man for them but which is not present in my `man emacsclient` (in debian sid) and the `-F` option does not work in my case : ``` $ emacsclient -c -F "((fullscreen . maximized))" emacsclient: unrecognized option '-F' Try `emacsclient --help' for more information ``` Here is the result of `emacsclient --help` for information : ``` emacsclient --help Usage: emacsclient [OPTIONS] FILE... Tell the Emacs server to visit the specified files. Every FILE can be either just a FILENAME or [+LINE[:COLUMN]] FILENAME. The following OPTIONS are accepted: -V, --version Just print version info and return -H, --help Print this usage information message -nw, -t, --tty Open a new Emacs frame on the current terminal -c, --create-frame Create a new frame instead of trying to use the current Emacs frame -e, --eval Evaluate the FILE arguments as ELisp expressions -n, --no-wait Don't wait for the server to return -d DISPLAY, --display=DISPLAY Visit the file in the given display -s SOCKET, --socket-name=SOCKET Set filename of the UNIX socket for communication -f SERVER, --server-file=SERVER Set filename of the TCP authentication file -a EDITOR, --alternate-editor=EDITOR Editor to fallback to if the server is not running If EDITOR is the empty string, start Emacs in daemon mode and try connecting again Report bugs with M-x report-emacs-bug. ```
