Just tack on an X and Y position after width and height (witn -geometry format or just space-delimited) and you're set. ex: make an 800x600 window and move it to the 2nd monitor XWin.exe -screen 0 800 600 1024 0 XWin.exe -screen 0 800x600+1024+0 You can still specify just a width and height, so no changes to current scripts needed: XWin.exe -screen 0 800 600 XWin.exe -screen 0 800x600 At 04:52 PM 12/4/2004 +0100, Alexander Gottwald wrote: >We'll have to see how this fits with the old -screen n WxH option. -Earle F.
