Create a new one. The name is »~/.Xresources« -- the dot was missing
in my previous posting. Normally it's read automatically when the X
server is started. If not, you need to enter »xrdb -merge
~/.Xresources« or put this in your ~/.xsession (or
/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession).

If you do it in »~/.emacs«, Emacs starts *with* a tool bar (which
obviously doesn't make much sense) and removes it later. Compare the
two calls below. You'll see that they lead to different sizes of the
Emacs frame.
emacs -q -no-site-file -xrm 'Emacs.toolBar: 0' -geometry 80x20
emacs -q -no-site-file -xrm 'Emacs.toolBar: 1' -geometry 80x20 \
-eval '(tool-bar-mode -1)
Bye, Reiner.
