Does anyone have tips on using XWindows on a low resolution screen (eg laptop)? I find that lots of programs (eg emacs, xemacs, xnetscape, and from memory xfig) open up windows that a too big to fit on the screen, and it is awkward have to resize the window automatically after reloading. I don't particularly want to go into each application one by one to try and change the default load position, either - as I would have to find the special procedure for every application. ...or is this a bug in my window manager (fvwm95)? Would using another window manager help? I know from the window manager sets the windows initial size and position, but the application can override it. I have no idea if this is the case or not for the above applications. (actually - I am not using this computer - I prefer fvwm) -- Brian May <bam@snoopy.apana.org.au>
