And if Michelle is right (I suspect so) the problem needs to be reported as
a bug against Script Editor. A window whose saved position is fully
off-screen is supposed to be moved on-screen when opened. Unless, of
course, Apple has thrown away that part of the HIG along with so much else.
Apparently, I'm wrong. No matter how I tried, when switching between
1024 by 768 and 800 by 600, the Results window always wound up visible in
the monitor at the lower resolution. In some cases, it was only two or
three pixels of the left side and/or top borders of the window, but there
was always at least that much of the window on the screen.
Of course, with that little amount of the window visible, it's easy to
miss seeing it.
Not having two monitors on my iMac, I couldn't test the two-monitor
possibility.
I do have two monitors and mostly only have one on. I find
DragAnyWindow to be esential. See snip fron the readme. With the
above problem, I would press ctrl+command+c and the window will jump
to the center of the main monitor.

DragAnyWindow 4.5 info - October 1998
* Shareware: $10 - Please click the Info button in the control panel
for detailed registration instructions.
* DragAnyWindow is a way cool control panel that enhances the look
and behavior of window dragging. When you drag a window's title bar
and Solid Dragging is active, the whole window image is moved instead
of a dull-looking window outline. If the Update Windows option is
also active, all windows are updated on the fly without waiting for
you to release the mouse. Not as fast as the BeOS, but definitely
better than the standard Mac OS behavior!
