Is there a way for an icon to stay put, in a constant location,
so that when it is opened and stowed, it goes back to the same
location each time ?
I loose track of what is happening in each icon when they jump
into any available slot, instead of some location. I build a
mental map of what is going on in each spot, only to get confused then
they re arrange themselves. Then I have to really confuse things
by opening all of the identical wsh icons looking for the process I
stowed.
Is there a way to put an annotation on the wsh icon, like the pwd it is in
from inside the wsh ? Is there a way to iconify wsh from the command line ?,
and when a process finished, beep, or change the text on the icon, or
even open itself (a blooming process that flowers).
