BTW about the default document position: how about using the frame of unsaved windows as default position? Ie. you open a new window in Pe, move it to the position you want to have, and close it again - voilà, you have a new default position for new windows.
Sounds like a nice idea to me.
+1 from me. :-)
Would that be too unobtrusive? (at least it would save another preferences entry)
Well, it surely would have to find its way into the documentation, as otherwise it probably would be pretty hard to find out... (well, as noone is reading documentation anyway, it'll still be, but at least we'd have an excuse then >;o)
Anyway, I am going to implement that (default document position) soon, and while at it, I am probably going to improve Pe's handling of multiple new windows a bit: currently Pe moves each new window somewhat towards the left and bottom of the one opened last, but it actually shrinks the window vertically (i.e. the frame bottom of all windows stays the same). This I find pretty weird, so I would like to get rid of it (again, unless semeone shows me a good reason to keep that behaviour).
(I hope I haven't missed that it has already been changed. :-)
