Window placement

Thanks!

It solves the dimensions question.

The more important one for me is placement (specifically, start at +0+0). 
This information does not appear in ~/.config/okularrc alas.

I do not use the KDE desktop.
But following this idea I made fvwm open Okular at +0+0.

Perhaps it would be worthwhile to add a --geometry option some day?

That's a bit too far for me :-)


Kind regards,
Sébastien.
