Review request for kdelibs.


Description
-------

KDE applications support the option: --geometry <width>x<height>{+-}<xpos>{+-}<ypos>
Example: kwrite --geometry 800x600+100+100

While the width and height arguments work, the x/y positions only work if they are negative. The code was added 11 years ago with commit d3188ee411df716b20e10fcdaa9dbc506cc31759 and probably never worked. This patch tries to fix it.

In KDE 5, support for --geometry was removed with commit fbc835090758581ba57ffbd210c00e60b1e1742f in the frameworks branch. Still having a working version for the KDE 4 lifetime would be nice imo :-)

Testing
-------

Not tested, since I have no KDE4 kdelibs build. It's very much appreciated, if someone else can test this.


Thanks,
