Dear long-suffering Nelson,

    Thank you.  You're so generous.  And I'm a pest....
    
    I set my main window to position -0+0 (not +0+0).  This lovely syntax
is "upper-right-hand corner".  In other words, -setWindowPositionX:Y: needs
to case out the syntax.  If you were to be a truly heroic martyr, you'd give
geometry string manipulation gizmos to allow the user access to the stuff
needed to tile the d****d windows, as is all we really want.  At least
some query that returned the int's.

    [[[worldDisplay getTopLevel] getWidget] getX: wx Y: wy Xsize: sx Ysize: sy];
    [[nextwindow getTopLevel] setWindowPositionX: wx+sx+2 Y: wy+sy+2];
    
And similar crud.

Thanks!

Cheers,

P.S. (Where's grad school?)
