Hi!

I have updated the Stack & Tile patches here:
http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~lutteroth/linprog.diff
http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~lutteroth/stack-and-tile.diff

There is now initial support for persistent stacks based on the solution proposed by Stefan: apps that save their window settings using GetSettings() and then restore them upon restart using SetSettings() now also store identifiers for the windows in their stack. When windows were stacked, then the next time they are opened, they will be stacked again.

Stack & Tile seems relatively stable, but of course not perfect yet. As usual, if windows are not stacked or tiled using the Windows key, Stack & Tile remains deactivated and does not interfere. Soon a research programmer will start to work on Stack & Tile regularly, so it will be maintained and improved.

Cheers,
Christof
