[GRASSLIST:3832] display manager settings

Hi all, I was wondering if there is a way to set the geometry of the display manager in grass 5.3? Is there a simple flag I can add on like one can do for xterm (i.e. -geometry 100x100+60+45)? My problem is that I only have a 14" screen, and it would be nice to not have to move and resize the display manager every time I open it.

Thanks,
Ian

PS I am running mac 10.3.4 with the grass libraries and grass 5.3 installed from Lorenzo Moretti's site.

display manager in grass 5.3? Is there a simple flag I can add on

move and resize the display manager every time I open it.

Two ways:

a) d.monsize

b) for a more permanent solution, add the following lines to the
'~/.grass.bashrc' file:

export GRASS_WIDTH=100
export GRASS_HEIGHT=100

So I am not sure, but I think that just changes the size of the monitor. I wanted to change the geometry of the display manager itself. Any ideas out there?

Thanks
