As the subject indicates, this is a beginner's question.
I have typed in the helloworld program that begins Oliver
Jones' book.  I am running twm on a sun workstation (3/60).
According to the text, myhint.x and myhint.y determine the
top left corner position of the helloworld window.  Well, 
I can change these values to say, 0, and the window still
positions itself at the same position.  BTW, yes I recompiled!!
What is the reason for my window not popping up at a location
specified by myhint.x and myhint.y?  Thanks in advance.

Gary
