I want to place a window in the second virtual horizontal screen. To do this I have an executable menu option to do the following: hpterm -title HLC =80x30+1024+180 When I start the window from the home virtual screen HLC appears in the right place. If I am in the second horizontal screen already, it gets added to the TWM Window Manager list, but doesn't appear on the screen. If I deiconify it from the TWM Window Manager, the screen jumps to the second horizontal screen, scrubs the background with trash pixels and the window still doesn't appear. I read about forcing USPosition in the README.tvtwm, but I can't find out how to do this. Is the bug in tvtwm or in my brain ?? This is driving me crazy. I'll summarise any replies and/or bug fixes.
