I'm writing a shell script to automatically launch my work environment. It would be pretty nice to arrange the program windows automatically (for example vim opens at the left on desktop, and browser opens at the right...)
Is it possible to give commands "window-parameters"?
I use Gnome on Ubuntu, if that matters.

. I'm not sure if it's available for your specific distro (as you did not state what distro you are using), but it could accomplish this. – Heather Brown Jul 29 at 17:42
