[AG-TECH] Minimizing and Placing Windows

[Keith Simmons]

Hello,

I have been maintaining 3+ AccessGrid nodes for about two weeks now.   
One of the issues I have is creating a setup that automatically  
places windows where they belong after starting the Venue Client.  I  
created the following python script for MS Windows to minimize  
windows that are usually extraneous for our users:

Are there more reliable ways to start certain windows minimized,  
place windows automatically, or otherwise automate the end-user  
experience?  I am worried primarily about MS Windows right now, but  
cross-platform solutions are preferred.  Is there a "save window  
layout" button that I'm missing?

Thanks,
Keith Simmons
