Re: [PATCH] gitk: don't save the geometry to rc file on exit

Here's a patch for people to test.  It only restores the width and
height, and limits the width and height to be at most the width and
height of the screen.  It seems to work fine under X; I would be
interested to know what happens under macos and windows.
