2002-03-07 Thread Steven M. Castellotti
Hey all- I'm currently running BlackBox on my iPAQ (Familiar 0.5.1) and am trying to figure out if there's a .blackboxrc configuration that will provide me with better placement of windows larger than the available display area. Currently, windows that are too large seem centered on the
