Very Computer

Hi there,

i'm running netscape 3 (sometimes 4) on a Sun Solaris Unix system with
X11/mwm surface. I was wondering whether it is possible to set the
default icon position for the program. I've always got to move the icon
manually to the place where i want it.

Regards,

Martin

example: $ xterm -iconic -geometry 80x24+30+200+200+400

In this case the window will be 80 chars wide by 24 chars high
and positioned 30 pixels from the left and 200 pixels from the top.
The icon will be placed 200 pixels from the left and 400 pixels from the
top.

Man X, xrm, xset, mwm
and look do a search through your answerbook pages for the same entries
if you have access to answerbook.  

I don't have access to a current sun system otherwise I would look it up
for you.

Hang in there.

  $ xterm -iconic -geometry 80x24+30+200 -xrm '*iconGeometry: +200+400'

I haven't been able to find any indication that either method will work
with Netscape however, although I don't have a Solaris system to try
Netscape there.  (I used 'strings' to look for likely resource names.)
