Setting geometry for second frame ?? |

Hi;
How do you set the size of a secondary frame?
My Xresources file is set to 'Emacs.Geometry: 80x55+96+35'. That size,
generally speaking, is the default size I am most comfortable with.
However, I have a key binding that opens a second frame containing a
text file in which I keep my notes as I am working.
(global-set-key [(super f1)] (lambda()
(interactive)(find-file-other-frame
"~/Documents/C/Text/C-Notes.txt")))
I want this second frame to open with a geometry of 75x55 so that I can
fit two frames, side-by-side, on my desktop. I don't want to change my
Xresources file unless there is a safe way to write a conditional
command in Xresources, nor compromise on my default setting.
Is there a way to do this using a key binding to an existing function or
do I have to write my own function? If I have to write my own function,
could you outline which functions and/or variables I might need to use?
