I can confirm that the behaviour is much better: the window size is restored, as is the position, but it gives preference to the Xinerama head. You'd think it restores at the same *relative* position on the current head, but it actually just restores somewhere — I cannot figure out the behaviour. However, I still wonder why we have to do this at all. I understand that Cygwin has issues and needs this code, but couldn't it then be made to run only on Cygwin, such that on "proper" Unix systems, the config file is *not* updated every time I move the window before closing the application? As I said earlier, this is really the job of a window manager, *not* a configuration option. If your window manager cannot restore the window to a size you control, then it's broken. Let's not hack applications to work around that, please. -- martin | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ $complex->{'data'}[$structures][$in_perl] = @{$can{'be'}->[$painful]}; spamtraps: madduck.bogus@xxxxxxxxxxx
