This reminded me:
A while ago I was trying to write a script to remember which windows were
popup to be able to reset them. (Ocassionally iTunes burps when it changes
the screen resolution and I lose my popup windows.) I got it to work,
except I couldn't figure out how to set where they appear. e.g. I like to
have a few popup windows on the left side of my screen and a few on the
right side with none in the middle. When I set their popup to true they
are all on the left side of the screen. Is there a way to tell them where
to appear? It's fairly straight forward to set the dimensions and position
of non popup windows, but I couldn't find any way to set the popup position.
Where should I look? Thanks in advance.
