address@hidden @code{(+ @var{pos})}
+This specifies the position of the left frame edge relative to the left

address@hidden @code{(- @var{pos})}
+This specifies the position of the right frame edge relative to the right
+screen edge.  The integer @var{pos} may be positive or negative; a
+negative value specifies a position outside the screen.

 Some window managers ignore program-specified positions.  If you want to
 be sure the position you specify is not ignored, specify a
 address@hidden value for the @code{user-position} parameter as well.
