	To whom it may concern:

	A simple question- How can I prevent the minibuffer window
from being opened on top of the top of my regular window at startup?
This is Epoch version 4.2 compiled with the DEC C compiler under X11R4
with MIT extensions, using motif 1.1.3 window manager on a DECstation
5000/240.  It startups epoch with the origins for both windows in the
same place, obscuring the top two or three lines of the fundamental
buffer.  I can't seem to find the correct value for a resource or
geometery which moves one out from under the other.

	Any hints?

		Thanks,

			Peter David

On my Sparcstation I have the following lines in my .Xdefaults file

	epoch.screen.geometry:		80x54+580+109
	epoch.minibuf.geometry:		80x1+580+848
	epoch.screen.font:		courier-bold
	epoch.minibuf.font:		courier-bold


Hope this helps.
