Hi,

I am new to FVWM. I am experimenting with it after having used Sawfish
for a while (both FVWM and Sawfish are the only two window managers
that seem to allow me to actually do what I want in my own
way... there are some areas where Sawfish is better, and others where
FVWM is better... but I digress).

One thing that I have not been able to figure out how to do after
pouring over documentation, old messages to the mailing lists, forum
posts, etc. is this: How can I set up a style for a specific window so
that when it is created, it is placed at a particular location on the
screen?

For example, for most of my windows, I use manual placement, because I
find that if I don't do that, I end up moving windows around anyway,
so why not just move it to begin with and cut out the middle man? But
then there are others, such as the Gaim buddy list, which I prefer to
always be in the same spot. This is what I would like to do.

I am currently using version 2.5.14.

This is also just one of several questions that I have in regards to
tweaking things here and there, but I'll save the rest for separate
threads.

Thanks,
