I'm not using a XEmacs, and it doesn't support this parameter.

Fullscreen is supported in GNU Emacs 22 and later.

Note however that this does not mean "maximized" on MS Windows.

I am using the Windows version of 22.0.50.1 and I have wondered the same thing under XP Pro. Setting the "Run: maximized" shortcut property does nothing, and starting Emacs via:

C:\Emacs\bin\runemacs.exe --fullscreen

results in bad behavior - Emacs does not seem to realize that there is a toolbar at the bottom of the screen and hence starts with the minibuffer hidden behind it. Is there a Windows-safe version of --fullscreen?
