Okay, this sounds like a job for localprefs.js. For me, comx works better if
the windows are resized after creation. For you, comx works better if the
windows are sized at creation. Actually, if the window.open would just
respect the specified dimensions when it opened on my PC, I would prefer it
that way, too. You like the image scaled to the window created; I like the
original dimensions, unscaled. While we're about it, we should throw in a
list of daily preferred comics, so I don't have to type them on the line
(Yes, I do remember localaliases.txt). What about title bars? Should they be
preference-based? Should window.open vs (how did we do it before?
Document.open?) be preference-base? What other options should we let users
set outside of code?
