When I was running sunview there was a handy command called "toolplaces". This allowed you to set up your display, positioning all the windows etc .. just right, where they went when closed blah blah ... and then you could execute "toolplaces > .suntools" and this would create your startup file to postion everything when invoking sunview. Does such a thing exist under/for X11/R3 (if I can get a bigger disk for my sun I'll try R4 ... Any one know how much room R4 will take -> uncompressed, everything compiled, bare minimum compiled .....?). If not is it worth writing one? Ta folks and a Yakey day to you all (thats said in a Welsh cum 'up north accent) -- .

It will do most of what you want I think. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ken Hughes (hughes@sol.csee.usf.edu) | "Beautiful ship, though; looks sysadm (root@sol.csee.usf.edu) | like a fish, moves like a Dept of Comp Sci and Eng | fish, steers like a cow".
