grun doen't recognise the -geometry option #2

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

According to the man page, "gRun also recognizes all standard X Windows and
GTK options, eg -display and -geometry", but they don't seem to work. I'm
attaching a trivial patch to add the "-geometry" option, although it might
be better to have complete support for those options.

This is the reason why in the past (like years ago) I used gmrun instead, 
besides grun being better in my opinion. gmrun just accpets geometry and thus 
is less intrusive for my tastes.

I just tested the patch and it applied fine. However, when I use +0-0 the 
window is not on the bottom left corner, but a bit above that, don't know what 
the reason is. Fvwm modules have no problem obeying that geometry.

A minor glith that can be overcome by manually playing with positive values 
until the window is where I want it to be. So thanks :)
