Hmmm... I had fired up xemacs to test
	Options-->Advanced(customize)-->Face.... 
	then Default, just above Desktop Entry Group...

I think I looked at text in my .emacs/custom.el file or switched
from one to the other out of habit.

So yep you are correct for emacs.
	Options-->Customize Emacs-->Specific Face 

Of interest switching between the two, xemacs and emacs, .emacs
becomes a XEmacs compatibility file and the .emacs/ dir becomes
.xemacs/ with custom.el and init.el in it.  Now init.el gives a 
hook to keep the two versions from too much tangle.  Stuff
like this:
    (cond ((not running-xemacs)
           (global-font-lock-mode t)
    ))

BTW: And these comments show up.
 ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it!
 ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it!
I guess I have been warned.

For Emacs his looks interesting:  frame-initial-geometry-arguments

So does this!!!!!
  /usr/share/xemacs-21.4.14/etc/sample.Xdefaults
