Yes and no.  I needed the info from already running terminals to
duplicate them (size, location, etc.) on booting.  I've finally settled
on a GUI configuration -- I use only a window manager and it doesn't
"remember" it when I reboot.  So, I have to use a startup script to
load and "place" everything.

Again, thanks for your recommendation.
