A (partial) answer to a question I asked,
for persons with the same problem (if any?):
The option "-geometry" seems not to work
(or I invoke bad parameters?
xmaxima -geometry 950x700
(then, an order
puts "${width}x${height}"
before the dsetq of line 12007
gives an error message).
These lines around 12007 automaticaly set width and height
to a maximum, which are a bit too big for me.
So, a not so bad workaround to get useful geometry
is to write
geometry . 950x700+10+30
instead of
geometry . "${width}x${height}"
Best regards.
