Hi,
I use Tcl/Tk 8.4 in Linux.
I want to put a window in the top-left point of screen:
        toplevel .w
        wm geometry .w +0+0
But then I don't see the title and the left border of the window.
In order to see them I need to:
        wm geometry .w +5+23

Is there a better way to do that?
(Does it depend on the X ?)

Thanks in advance
Udi
