There are 2 issues here.
First you can't fit some windows exactly. For example xterms.
Try to maximize xterm or, say, FvwmPager. Chances are that you get gaps.
This is how xterm says it should be resized.
The second issue is that Resize gets the size of a client window not
the window frame. So if you have border with width 3 and title with width
18, frame will be 6 pixels wider by X and 24 pixels higher.
So try another method instead:
DestroyFunc Max-Pri-Mon
AddToFunc Max-Pri-Mon
+ I Move 0p 0p
+ I Resize bottomright 1152p 864p
+ I Raise
Currently Move and Resize can't be combined here, but Dominik will surely
fix this. :)
But, as I said xterm or other terminal emulator, may not fix exactly.

Mikhael.
