[comp.sys.next] Shell/Terminal X,Y Placement

hodges@toaster.SFSU.EDU (John Hodges) (06/04/90)

I would like to know if there is a way to place my initial Shell and Terminal
windows where I want them.  I have been able to use dwrite to set the number
of lines and columns, and to set the font type and size, but have been unable
to set the window location (x or y).  It seems that there would be a nice
utility that allows each user to set up their login environment (similar to an
Apollo startup file I suppose), but I have not seen one.

Does anyone know which applications do (do not) write new parameter values to
.NeXTDefaults?

Any comments would be useful.
