   You mentioned something about a file ~4Dgifts/.4sight/prefpos.ps
and it was suppose to set things up like Sun's toolplaces.  I checked
and neither of our machines have this file.  They are both running 3.3.1
(ones a 210VGX, the other 320VGX)
   Does this file also save the icons position?  What I would like
is something like the Sun's command for saving screen lay out.  When
you save the layout, you save the entire "desktop".  Not only is the
postition of windows and icons saved, but also what programs are running.
So the next time you log in, everything is set up the same as when you
last save the "desktop".
   Does anyone have this set up?
