Does anyone know of any software or extensions allowing windows to

automatically rearranged on modern large screen displays so that
nothing overlaps if possible?
Or if not, hints on how such a program might be written? I can't
think of a LEGAL way of doing this, I'm afraid.
Windows of PE programs can be moved by WM_CHWIN but non PE programs
can't. I wanted to be able to move non PE windows so I invented a
routine which can do this (with the help of the program itself of
course). I think I have three programs using this facility.
However, that's a long way from moving someone else's windows
without so much as a by your leave.

That's exactly what I thought. I had a horrible vision of scanning the
jobs tree, suspending everything, scanning for every job's windows and
poking new values into their window coordinates then trying to redraw
them at new coordinates. Yuk. Messy. Probably impossible, at least
without PE on the machine.
