- Lines: 29

- I've encountered tow stranges bugs since I use OS/2 2.0. What is
- is funny (it may be a coincidence) is that each of these bugs appeared after
- a crash (to be more precise a lockup and not a Trap). Since then I'm stuck
- with these to problems, one of them being slighlty annoying :
- - After the first crash, now all my OS/2 and DOS windowed Sessions open
- *maximised* all the time. Well this could be called a positive bug :), but
- anyway I'd like to know how it happened. I suppose all the information about
- window setting is stored in the .INI files, could anyone give me more
- information on how to modify these settings to get my sessiosn open just
- how I like them to be.
- - The second bug is more annoying : after the second crash, all these
- windowed sessions not only start maximised but now they all have the
- *same starting position* on the screen ! Therefore every time I must work
- with multiple windows (and that's always the case :) I must move the newly
- created window, eventually resize it. It's particularly annoying if one
- window opens in the background without being visible at all. My request is
- the same : how can I cope with this ?
- Thanks.
