Well, I think it was written somewhere, perhaps I had chosen

Ok, tried this and indeed:
the emacs window now comes up!
I even could not reproduce an immediate problem with grace
(using zoom, etc.) One should note that comments written 2-3 years ago
nay refer to a 1.2 version - do we really assume that this might
behave different?
I don't have Thot currently here in a compiled version.
form/test45 is also finally happy with its geometry, it does look
much different as compared with DO_RETURN_ALMOST?!
